Camping fuel and DRAIN cleaner!!! How hard up do you have to be to ingest that stuff.

Misleading. The truth is is that sodium hydroxide (lye, drain cleaner) is used in it's manufacture, as it is for many chemical processes and pharmaceuticals. Something that is used chemicaly to make something, doesn't necessarily mean that it's "in" there, if it has been chemical reacted to form something different. You wouldn't eat a spoonfull elemental sodium, right? You'd die. You wouldn't take a swig from a bottle of chlorine, would you? You die. Would you combine those two together and consume that? You do every day, because sodium chloride is table salt.

The drug itself is bad enough, but not because it "has drain cleaner in it"...
