Can confirm, I'm European and my mind cannot comprehend this.
1000 pills? I've never seen so many pills all at once. Do you use them to flavor your dishes or something?
Pill are cheaper than surgery.

You guys pay for surgeries??

Hearing Europeans mock how much we pay for health care never gets old. I mean, the stupid high bills just don't get the point across. I would be ecstatic with a single payer system supported by taxes. A system that doesn't rely on an insurance company whose sole purpose is to deny me the coverage I am due. My favorite part is the fake astronomical prices they put on stuff just to charge insurance companies a "negotiated" price. I get that we, as a nation, truly suck. At best we are a corporatocracy. At worst, a straight oligarchy. We've got a feeble minded , racist, oompa loompa running for a second term as president. And he has a legit chance of winning! There is almost no part of our society that does not suck in some way. And the vast majority of us know it but the government is so bought and paid for that no real change is possible without bullets. But please, my European brothers and sisters, can you please stop rubbing it on our faces. I assure you we hurt enough already. (edit: a word)
Well, they are 200mg pills so you will need to take 4 at once for them to make a difference, multiple times per day
Isn't 400mg the normal adult dose and 600 the bigger?
Those numbers are unamerican. Real Americans take 5 in the morning, 5 in the afternoon, and 8 to go to bed.
