Exactly what impression do you get from this prescription drug carton?

1. There are several ways to look at that.
And at least one of them would get the thread locked.

2. All it needs is the banana peel.

and a few circling stars.

It certainly doesn't recommend itself as an analgesic.

Maybe a lubricant, but that's really reaching.

3. I've fallen and I can't get up!

I'm not sure how to take that.

If I had to use that product, I don't know if I'd be informed or alarmed. :D

5. It looks like one of those bizarre unintelligible Homeland Security signs...
that people write funny captions for.

Maybe we should have a caption contest for this.

8. My wife is supposed to be taking that stuff for her sore wrist
of course, she isn't doing it because she doesn't have time between taking care of the baby and working. Maybe she would if the Voltaren she has had the little dude making a face plant, though.

9. They finally brought this to this country?
Fourteen years ago I fell while riding my bike, broke the fibula bone and smaller ones in my ankle where screws were used. Also a cast for my leg.

After that, to lower the swelling I was prescribed the Voltaren pills. I read the side effects - upset stomach - and decided not to use them.

Some weeks later I was traveling out of the country and was amazed when I heard my hosts talking about Voltaren gel! I will always prefer a drug that can be applied topically then systemically and have been keeping a tube, or two, of this at home, even got one for a family member with an active son playing soccer and always with areas that could be soothed.

So it took the FDA fourteen years to approve this?
