When I was in pharmacy school, a guy came and spoke to our class who had lost his license because he used his own drugs. (A decade later, one of my classmates lost his LIFE this way; looking back, I really think he became a pharmacist so he could get drugs, and trust me, this is NOT the easy way to do it!) He mentioned drinking bottles of Tylenol #3 elixir, and chasing it with acetylcysteine as an antidote to the Tylenol content, and I was one of a few people who gasped because we knew how dreadful that stuff smelled, and presumably tasted.
Is there any other kind?
Other kinds of drugs? Or other kinds of addictions?
