They were prescribed to me 5 years ago when I left hospital after an op. They warned me to be careful with them, and since I have highly addictive tendencies, I decided to take half the recommended dose while I recuperated. Consequently, when I was better, I ended up with a stash of about 60 of the little beauts.
Since then, I have given some away to a friend who broke two ribs and was prescribed useless meds for it... I've also dipped into them for occasional painful conditions (like my current shoulder problem), but mostly they have been consumed for recreational purposes. And despite their age, they remain most efficacious, on both counts
Sadly, I only have 6 left. But when these run out, I have about 50 'co-dydramols'. 500/20s, I think. Not sure what the recommended recreational dose is. Unless someone advises to the contrary, I think I'll kick things off with two...?
