> Always surprises me as an American in the UK how hostile the UK is to paracetamol.
This is so funny because there's a post in another subthread by someone from the UK saying the same thing about Americans being hostile toward it.
I've only been to the UK a few times, but I feel like it's a funny meme that people in the UK unhesitatingly suggest and take paracetamol for everything. I guess that's not really true, or at least has some truth to it but is an exaggeration?
I’m more referring to the fact that it’s treated like a controlled substance here and sold in limited quantities from behind the counter. It’s the same treatment the U.S. gives to Sudafed which is an input to meth as I understand it.
