The tablets we know as "Anthony's little red pills".

The polypill combines aspirin, a statin to lower cholesterol and an ACE inhibitor and a thiazide to counter high blood pressure in one tablet. If this is shown to work it could save millions of lives particularly in developing countries - and without making megabucks for big Pharma!
Lets face it, if the choice was taking individual swigs of vodka, bacardi, tequila and grenadine or having them ready mixed and shaken, I know which I'd prefer!!
Note! Do not contact me for medical information or advice, I only look after the database & website side of these research projects. Besides, I am liable to tell you blatant lies or propaganda.
Note! Yes I do listen to Dylan while working.
No other excitement today. It would have been daylight until 7pm but for the dark rain clouds that dulled the sky before that.

OK... now it's the little pink pill (not to confuse with the blue one!)
I'd like to try it! Tell me if it works for you.-
