Of them massive scale pharmaceutical ingredients, Na2CO3, KHCO3, alginate (an extremely viscous naturally occurring polymer coming from alginic acid, which is found naturally, it comes from seaweed, and very very commonly used as a thickening agent in both pharmaceutical excipients and active ingredient in the case of anti gastric reflux meds, as well as for thickening foods, the rest of it are flavourings, either mint, or aniseed, both in use on truly enormous scales worldwide, and a few bits of other shite such as preservatives (parabens, IIRC, could be mistaken there though as to the type of preservative, but I don't think so, can't be arsed getting off the sofa downstairs to go upstairs and look at the ingredients listings
)
I get mine on prescription, thankfully; I really think the pricing of it over the counter is an unjustifiable ripoff, the large bottles are in the region of £7-ish to £8-something. The amount of gaviscon I need to use, that would fucking bankrupt me for sure, I wonder if I'd actually be able to go 6 months without ending up penniless, sleeping under a motorway bridge on a bed made of hundreds of melted down amber glass bottles in a sort of moulded-glass cot made of all those previously emptied bottles
Just got back to finishing off this post from going to get some more of my meds, a little oxy, just 30mg, along with the remaining contents of a pre-prepped rig that had been forgotten a little earlier, containing a bit of MS, the remainder, basically, of what cannot be dissolved in water once solubility limits are reached, and cannot be further circumvented via the means of using water of an increased temperature for the reason of not I.V'ing water of a temperature that would burn. About to go and get myself a cap of chlormethiazole, some clonidine, a pramipexole (dopamine receptor agonist, of the non-ergot alkaloid-based variety, agonist at D1, D2, D3 and D4, with the overall preference in terms of intrinsic agonist activity being weighted towards a D3r preference [how large a response of a drug by the cells acted upon vs the activity of the bodys own natural, native neurotransmitter for that receptor at the concentration sufficient to evoke a response of maximal amplitude being taken as 100., thats what is meant by the term intrinsic activity, ''IA'']
I want some cimetidine, but I can't find where I put the bottle.
