You couldn't make this shit up. Apparently the active ingredient in 'P' is used to reduce a 'Viagra erection'.......
"Mr Key didn't elaborate either when he said there would be exceptions because "there's still a small group of of people who may in some circumstances benefit from using PSE [pseudoephedrine]-based products instead." Once again, the implication was he was referring to cold sufferers. But not so.
The only people he and Professor Gluckman want to give a helping hand to are idiots who have over-dosed themselves on Viagra.
The professor told the PM he had considered a total ban on PSE. "This option would provide the tightest control on pseudoephedrine in that there would remain no legal basis for possession of the substance in New Zealand."
But, all heart, he unearthed research that "there are (rare) medical situations in which the vasoconstrictor activity of pseudoephedrine is useful (for example, the treatment of priapism associated with overdosage of medication for erectile dysfunction) and this level of control may create clinical difficulties."
So knock on Dr John's door with your sinuses inflamed and your head pounding and all you'll get is a sorry, no can do, the fight against P takes precedence over your runny nose. But turn up at the hospital emergency room with the same symptoms below the belt and it will be "how much would you like, sir?"
