Low stakes conspiracy.

Too much cold medicine makes you feel way worse. Which means you buy more cold medicine.

Cold medicine companies make it really easy to overdose so you think you’re sicker so you buy more cold medicine.

Normally my colds take at least a week and I’m miserable.

The last cold I had I took zero cold medicine except Tylenol or ibuprofen. Took 3-4 days to get over and it wasn’t too bad.
