uhhh...

Why does my bottle of Pamprin warn against using it before consulting a doctor if one has difficulty urinating due to an enlarged prostate?

Something in this equation ain't right.

Drug companies have to protect themselves against lawsuits from people who use the drug for things it isn't made for. If you read the labels, often you will find the symptoms you are trying to relieve & side effects in the same list.

I know that that's the logical explanation. It's still humorous, though.

Indeed. Sorry for the excessive... literalness? :p

No biggie, I've been known to do the same thing at times. :)
