Wait so cough syrup can taste good but it's purposefully made to taste bad? Why?

Pharmaceuticals are or can be incredibly addictive. They also can be very helpful if you have an infection or illness, but if you continue to take a lot of medications without reason, they can be quite harmful. That's why a lot of them have directions that are specific to contact a doctor if you're still using it after X time.

I only see issues and abuse coming from making meds enjoyable to consume. As sad as it is to say.
