That and to deal with the symptoms of their illnesses that have gone untreated because a) too expensive and/or b) doctors here gaslight you that it’s just anxiety.
My wife just paid $150 to go to a walk-in to check what is clearly a swollen blocked gland or something under her ear. It’s killing her. She was there for an hour. The doctor was in and out in under 2 minutes. He told her to take Tylenol and come back when it gets worse.
So yeah, it’s cheaper and you waste less time buying OTC pain killers in bulk I guess.
No. This was purchased because someone thought it was a “great deal”. They will use about a quarter of the bottle before it expires and then just throw the rest out.
Do Americans need these giant packs to deal with daily life in America?

This sounds insane.
I’ve heard ear infections can develop into stuff that can only be treated with IV antibiotics taken for months, otherwise they’re deadly. Stay safe.
LOL.
“Come back later when it’s time to remove the entire ear.”
This is way cheaper than health insurance.

Everyone I know who buys these will definitely use them before they expire. Most common reasons seem to be back pain and headaches.
Feel bad for the sucker who sees this and only buys one.

They won’t be thrown out, who are you kidding?
Some people also have families.

Not for long, if they’re taking that amount of drugs regularly.
Yea, well some families are annoying.
