The blue pill looks just like the 'night-time' cold and flu pills from Dimetapp, whoever they are. The day-time pill is red and looks just like the red pill.
They are for:
- Head and body aches
- Dry irritating cough
- nasal congestion
- Runny nose
- Fever
I first encountered them a few months ago when I came down with a really bad cold and my mother went out and bought me some pharmaceutical products for it. It was the first time I'd taken any pharmaceuticals without prescription (homeopath parents) and when I saw the pills I laughed too hard to actually take them.
Which is good because now I'm suffering from insomnia and I've been popping blue pills just to sleep. Side effects include:
- I get to believe what ever I want to believe!
I couldn't get over the blue pill being the drowsy one and the red pill being the non-drowsy one... |
