Aside from the insensitivity and irresponsibility why does he need to buy more than 2 packets at any given time? He's complaining about a complete non issue here and causing upset and hurt whilst he does.I’ve just started listening to their new podcast episode and I’m not easily offended but Chris just said he has an issue with going into a shop to buy paracetamol products and how they won’t allow you to buy more than product. Rosie said they do that so people can’t overdose and he said you need to take millions of them to do that.
As someone who has previously overdosed on paracetamol and I still consider it now (my mental health has taken a nosedive) and I know someone else who has this is just fucking wrong. I thought maybe they were kinda being a bit more in tune with what they were saying but Jesus Christ!!!
To be fair to him, living with CRW I'd imagine you get through a few packs a weekAside from the insensitivity and irresponsibility why does he need to buy more than 2 packets at any given time? He's complaining about a complete non issue here and causing upset and hurt whilst he does.
Hope you are OK. Please ignore their ignorance. I don't listen but I too would have been upset by that comment.I’ve just started listening to their new podcast episode and I’m not easily offended but Chris just said he has an issue with going into a shop to buy paracetamol products and how they won’t allow you to buy more than product.

Some things are just not humorous and sadly those 2 numptys just don't understand thatDon’t listen to the podcast anymore as it’s shite but he’s an ignorant twat if that’s what he is saying about paracetamol. Restricting the sale of paracetamol has slashed the number of fatal overdoses in this country. Idiot. I’ve seen people die of acute liver failure and it is a horrible way to die
It was because he wanted two bottles of calpol for robin I think but the whole thing was just horrificAside from the insensitivity and irresponsibility why does he need to buy more than 2 packets at any given time?

Are supplies of calpol running low then ? Could you not just buy one bottle then go get another one if you needed it ? Totally inappropriate and not funny - they must be struggling for content if this is the depths they are scraping !It was because he wanted two bottles of calpol for robin I think but the whole thing was just horrific
You can buy more than one as well, you just have to go to the pharmacy counter. I did it in boots recently when I had to get a bunch of stuff for friends and their child who were isolatingIt was because he wanted two bottles of calpol for robin I think but the whole thing was just horrific
You’d have to neck a fuck ton of paracetamol to OD as an adult and plus it’s about 10x more expensive than paracetamol caps so most pharmacists employ some discretion and common sense (in my case I was buying night nurse and some calpol)You can buy more than one as well, you just have to go to the pharmacy counter.

It doesn’t actually take that much to OD on paracetamol, the damage it can do may or may not kill you even at a ‘low’ dose of too much.You’d have to neck a fuck ton of paracetamol to OD as an adult and plus it’s about 10x more expensive than paracetamol caps so most pharmacists employ some discretion and common sense (in my case I was buying night nurse and some calpol)
There’s 2.4G in a bottle of infant calpol so just over double a standard adult dose. Hadn’t thought about junior calpol as that will be more concentrated. A “fuck ton” is probably excessively flowery in terms of my language lol but all I can say is I’ve seen and treated a lot of patients with paracetamol overdoses and none of them have ever drank it in liquid form except one lady who crushed the adult tablets and dispersed them in a drink. Livers regenerate well so a non fatal paracetamol OD which doesn’t require transplantation will usually lead to full recovery in a healthy well nourished adult who is treated in hospital promptly.It doesn’t actually take that much to OD on paracetamol, the damage it can do may or may not kill you even at a ‘low’ dose of too much.
But you can buy 2 packets in one transaction and more if you do it via the chemist or a pharmacy counter. One shouldn't be giving more that 4 doses of Calpol in 24hrs so two bottles is more than enough. If there is a greater need than that then one should be consulting a pharmacist or GP anyway.You are all being really over sensitive here, it is annoying to have to go to different shops or to be questioned when buying 2 packs or more of paracetamol. If someone wants to kill themselves they will do it anyway so the shops should just sell you however many packets you want to buy at the time.
Why remove a sensible rule that causes nobody any harm (and in fact aims to do the opposite) because it’s ‘annoying’? This is tone deaf. Risky move to wade in on a conversation about suicide and start telling everyone they’re over sensitive.You are all being really over sensitive here, it is annoying to have to go to different shops or to be questioned when buying 2 packs or more of paracetamol.

I really hope no one in your life comes to you and tells you they feel suicidal.You are all being really over sensitive here, it is annoying to have to go to different shops or to be questioned when buying 2 packs or more of paracetamol.

oh wow, if someone wants to kill themselves perhaps we should KEEP preventative measures in place to try and help them out of that dark place, let’s hope nobody in your life ever goes there, I imagine you’d not have much empathy…..You are all being really over sensitive here, it is annoying to have to go to different shops or to be questioned when buying 2 packs or more of paracetamol.

This is also why the stigma around mental health still existsoh wow, if someone wants to kill themselves perhaps we should KEEP preventative measures in place to try and help them out of that dark place, let’s hope nobody in your life ever goes there, I imagine you’d not have much empathy…..
