Nah, if they're your friends they won't think you're an arsehole or princess. You're just looking after yourself and avoiding risks.
Those codral ads were heinous. No one should go to work sick like that, I thought we learned that from the pandemic lol
I've seen ads for panadol to relieve pain from sore throats
employers learnt NOTHING and they still give zero fucks, because they have suffer no consequences
Pfft dumb af. Same with panadol for period pain. The ingredients are the same as generic.
I only buy generic ibuprofen, as I can't take panadol anymore. Same ingredients as brand name ibuprofen. Stupid af.
Painkillers are painkillers, regardless or what type of pain they advertise it for lol
not all tablets are the same
while the active ingredient is the same some have buffers as part of the tablet and this means it can be absorbed better in the stomach
