Hmm? The price or the annoyingness? $13 is expensive! Go to Chemist Warehouse next time, I don't know what the price is but it'd be a lot cheaper I'm sure. The computer is annoying but so is the recording pad (have you seen those around? there aren't many left). Either way, it's gotta be done I suppose.

Yep, phenylephrine. Anything with "PE" affixed to it is a phenylephrine substitute, e.g. Sudafed PE. But not as effective as pseudoephedrine.

Pseudoephedrine is the best thing ever. This regulating and licensing is a bunch of bull shit. And yes, they are supposed to take your licence details at all pharmacies. Although many pharmacies have simply stopped selling them and sell the shitty alternatives instead.

ive never been to a pharmacy that hasn't stocked pseudoephedrine, so i don't think it's very widespread

^^Wow where do you work? So glad I'm not employed anymore (well, not in terms of having a regular work shift anyway).

best place to study would be the 3rd year PT reading room in the chemistry building - tucked away in a corner. comfy chairs, lots of tables and computers and i dont reckon there'd be many there during stuvac
