Two items down the ingredients list I read "Nux Vom" and think...nooo...they couldn't possibly have abrreviated the latin for Strychnine, could they?
Quick google search turns up YES! Strychnine Nux Vomica.
That'll get rid of your headache alright, BY CUTTING OFF OXYGEN TO YOUR BRAIN.

Paracelsus:
"All Ding' sind Gift und nichts ohn' Gift; allein die Dosis macht, das ein Ding kein Gift ist"
"All things are poison and nothing is without poison, only the dose permits something not to be poisonous."
You are forgetting, C12 is dilution of 1:1000000000000. Yep, that is not much content. The LD50 for a rat is 2mg/kg. Quick calculation for human roughly (ignoring the difference human/rat): 150 mg. You are drowned before you die of strychnin, if you want to kill yourself with that medicine.

Lethal dose in an average sized human (64kg/141lbs) is between 1 and 2 grains, or @ 64-128 mg.
I didn't know about the dilution numbers though. From what I'm seeing, you're wrong too. 12C dilution according to what I'm reading in wikipedia is 10^
-24 which from my very limited understanding would be twice as many zeroes as you have up there, am I correct?
Either way, you're correct, you'd drown first.

Does this mean that movie 'Ghost Ship' was full of crap?

This book, which every person on the planet should be forced to read - especially those who need to be forced, has a pretty funny chapter on "Homeopathic" remedies like that painkiller. Amazing what bull@#(! people get away with.

I think we have derailed this post.
Lobby ban for telling someone he whines to much is not a reasonable use of #ban
