not sure if it’s as silly in the US, but you should be aware that the package-included “pamphlett” & official advice re hirudoid in the UK is actually referring to its (rather feeble) predecessor. the advice is accurate for the predecessor. it’s not accurate for hirudoid.

Is there something I missed while I haven't been in the office??? Did you tell me something that I might have ignored due to caffeine-withdrawal or because I was distracted??? Or is this just Frankie trying to counteract your daily caffeine intake? ;) Wait a sec… are these pre-prenatal vitamins, or prenatal? Is there something I missed while I haven’t been in the office???
