I Just Knocked My Benicar Down The Sink.

Seriously. Right down the fucking sink. If it were Xanax I just did that with not one of you would believe me. I still don't believe it myself, and I saw me do it.

Next thing I know my cat Spooky is gonna start chowing down on the refill, the way the pets of people who take narcotics seem to think of the Vicodin an animal treat.

Maybe I'm really dreaming, and everything will be OK in the morning.

Benicar's fucking expensive. Dammit.

That sucks, DM. Literally watching money go down the drain, ugh.

Sink holes only attract controlled substances, it is a proven fact,

Does your drain now smell of hot, buttered popcorn? I loves me some Benicar, but that is the most bizarre tablet scenting ever....isn't it?

yeah just like the time I was running for the tram drinking a coffee and trying to take a xanax and the whole bottle spilled all over the road.

I'll take Prenatal Rx 1 (marshmallow scented)....it is much better smelling than hot buttered popcorn.

while we are on the topic..
why do iv antibiotics smell like cat pee?

That's almost as bad as throwing up a name brand Zofran. This was quite a few years ago, but I paid $30.00 for that damn pill...

I didn't know marshmallows smelled like anything. Don't they just smell like the plastic bag? I am weird and don't like marsmallows (I know, I know). But tell me, if you have a bowl of steaming, fresh, hot buttered popcorn or a lifeless, listless, stale smelling bag of marshmallows.....make the right decision.

Also, was "Boof" taking the Xanax (pharmacy palindrome) to cope with the fact she had the hots for a wolf? Not just any wolf, mind you, but a Teenwolf. I can't believe I missed "Boof" the first and second time I read the comments. Double shame on me. P.S. Carac is also a pharmacy palindrome.

Too bad depakote is now generic- i'm gonna miss that smell of a freshly opened bottle

From one Phrustrated Pharmacist to another - I may be in love. I, too, love the smell of Benicar. And if you shorten the name, it even sounds like a recreational drug - "Beni's"...and the fact that you know what a palindrome is and have found some in the pharmacy, well...I have a pharmacist crush on you. Deal with it.

And DM - this may be the first recorded time in history someone has really lost a drug down the sink. I'm still suspicious, though, because it wasn't a controlled substance. I thought drains, toilets, bathtubs, and pets had some strange magnet inside them that only attracted controlled substances. And thieves who steal from cars in parking lots.

And, I must offer an apology to Original Phrustrated Pharmacist, who has had a web presence since 2007 or longer. I should have known I wasn't the only clever one to come up with such a name, although I bet you don't have a Pharmacy Mascott Siamese Fighting Fish named...wait for it...

PHISHIE!!

Back to the drawing board for a name. I may just add another PH- word...I can think of one right now I said when I saw I had duplicated someone's user name. Oh well.
