We didn't become some drug crazed addicts as a result either. Nowadays our government in all it's infinite wisedom has made it so sick people cannot get this awesome pain killer over the counter (or at all that I know of), but drug addicts can pick it up or something stronger anytime they want. My childs pediatrician looked at me like I was from the Armenian drug cartel when I enquired about Paragoric because my son had acid reflux issues, which I knew it would have releaved his pain.

I had a very upset stomach while on a business trip back in the 1979's.Stopped in to a small drug store in rural NC.,The Drugist gave me a very small dose of Paragoric and relief was almost imminate. I now suspect I have some food poisening, and believe that Paragoric would give immediate relief. Doctors should once again be able to perscribe small doses to patients, While in Mexico, I once again had food posioning and was given a very small white pill. Relief came in less than 30 minutes. The question is,Wht in this great country do we not have this drug with stringet controls for relief of these maladies?
