Lunesta is a prescription drug that is supposed to help you fall asleep. So you take it if you are someone who has trouble sleeping, to calm yourself and lessen the anxiety that causes wakefulness. First you have to tell your doctor that you have this problem, then you have to pick up the prescription from the pharmacy, so everyone who works there will also know you have this problem. (Try not to think about that, it could keep you up nights.) The commercial for Lunesta shows a butterfly flying around people's bedrooms at night, while a voice says that, besides thoughts of suicide, the drug might also cause "tongue or throat swelling, which could be fatal."How could anyone go to sleep after taking that and hearing that? Don't you think you might be too nervous to fully relax? Personally, I might try a cup of warm milk or some herbal tea with honey, and maybe half an hour watching QVC. It seems much safer and probably works just as well.
Those commercials creep me out!
ReplyDeleteA giant, glow-in-the-dark moth comes and lands on your face, at which point you're instantly unconscious.
This does not inspire confidence in a product!
You are right, Ted! "Creepy" is the word.....
