Percogesic

[dan0125]

I was exploring an abandoned house in my town which has been vacant for about 15 years. An old man lived there who died and nobody ever moved his stuff out of the house. The house is down a secluded dirt road, so it's been a party spot for years, now the whole place is trashed. Anyway I took around in side, and found a very old trial pack of something called Percogesic, the expiration date was in 1985, so it must've been something the old man was given. At first I got excited thinking they were some type of Percocet, then I looked at the back and it's just 350mg APAP, and 30 mg phenyltoloxamine citrate per pill (there are two pills in the blister pack).
Well I looked it up and it turns out it's just some kind of anti-histamine, no wonder nobody swiped it over the years, I found it in the oven of all places.

Doesn't that just piss you off! That stuff is available OTC still @ your local wal-greens...I think that the company that makes it should hafta change the label. So deceptive. They even kinda look like percocets...I saw them on the shelf one day, and got all excited, but for no reason I bet they do that on purpose, so that people will think that it's some super pain reliever. People can be dumb like that.
