LOOKIE, CRUSHING PILLS CAN KILL MAN INTERESTING YEA?
Nifedipine, the angina and blood pressure drug, can cause dizziness, headaches and an increased risk of
stroke or
heart attack when crushed up.
In addition, special coatings can mean a drug is absorbed over a long period of time, so a patient only has to take a tablet once a day, rather than several times a day.
If these medications are crushed, the drug is released a lot quicker than it is designed to be.
