| 700842 | 2008-08-27 07:25:00 | I am going to formulate a drug as part of my formulation assignment, so I figure I should find out what colours are acceptable / appealing . Cheers :) Interesting post there Jamuz . Did you think to ask the favorite flavor? Most US flavors are cherry and the newest one to be a big hit is "Bubble Gum" . I like cherry . I also remember one medicine called Paregoric* I think . . . (good . . my spell checker got that right for me . . I wasn't sure of the right spelling) . It was an opiate medicinal in the '40s and early '50s for kids with upset almost anything . All I know is that after I took it I didn't care if I had to dance the Fiji Firewalk . The taste was kinda like anise and peppermint at the same time . Loved it! But flavor's important and should coincide with the color . Red=Cherry in my mind . * Wow did I get a lot of info on Wiki: Paregoric, or camphorated tincture of opium, also known as tinctura opii camphorata, is a medication known for its antidiarrheal, antitussive, and analgesic properties . It was a household remedy in the 18th and 19th centuries, when it was widely used to calm fretful children . In the 20th century its use declined as governments regulated it . (In the United States, paregoric can still be found in the pharmacopeia, but it is a Schedule III drug under the Controlled Substances Act . ) The principal active ingredient is morphine (0 . 4 mg/mL) (approximately 2 mg per teaspoon) . Other ingredients are benzoic acid, camphor, glycerin, and anise oil . The main effect of this preparation is to increase the muscular tone of the intestine, and also to inhibit normal peristalsis . Its main medicinal use is to control fulminant diarrhea . It is also an antitussive (cough suppressant) . Problems with its use include opiate dependency and analgesia which can mask symptoms of diseases that need treatment . Paregoric is sometimes confused with laudanum, because their chemical names are similar: camphorated tincture of opium (paregoric) vs . tincture of opium (laudanum) . However, laudanum contains 10 milligrams of morphine per milliliter, 25 times more than paregoric . Confusion between the two drugs has led to overdose and deaths in several patients . Thus the term "paregoric" should be used instead of "camphorated opium tincture," since the latter may be confused with laudanum . |

| 700843 | 2008-08-27 07:27:00 | In African medicine, coloured pills are considered more effective and are more sought after. Therefore they can have a positive placebo effect over simple white ones. SJ, from memory, bubble gum flavour came about when "esters" were first synthesised and the one that comes out with that flavour was one of the simplest esters that could be made. en.wikipedia.org |

| 700844 | 2008-08-27 07:29:00 | Blue has no appeal, grey looks a bit time-expired, but red looks pretty positive. Black looks like something is being concealed. Green is great if you're a sheep, and yellow hints of recycled somehow. |
