Syrup of Ipecac has been outlawed by the APA (American Pediatricians Assoc.) to induce vomiting on case of poison.
Now, Patches has done re-hab as a cocaine druggie and knows that in order for his recovery to take root, one is always honest with one's doctors. Therefore one's Doctor would never prescribe Phenergan to a recovering anybody (Name your poison) NOR would they ever prescribe Ambien which I believe is listed as a a Narcotic!
His Mother is an alcoholic, his Father is an alcoholic.
If I were the freakin' School Nurse, I would refuse to give him Tylenol.
THIS IS SUCH A CLASSIC ALKY excuse.
Like a firend of mine said today.. excuses are like A**holes, we all HAVE one!
Oh geez, now I'm going to be investigated for Ipecac shopping. After all ignorance of Ipecac being banned is no excuse.
Perhaps I should go swill some Scotch, down some pills and put the petal to the metal.

BTW, I don't enjoy puking, it's an autonomic response to the work Kennedy.
