    - Wow. Sorry for her but at least you have taught her well. -- nm - Ultron Mar 11, 18:18 1
      - Hell, I even personally checked with our pharmacy to confirm Plan B would be sold without issue, if she came in looking for it. - TWuG Mar 11, 18:22
    - Then the teacher shouldn't be the person that you should be contacting. - spamlet Mar 11, 18:15 4
      - I'm not calling the teacher, I'm calling the Vice Principal to discuss the curriculum to see if I need to make a fuss further up the food chain. -- nm - TWuG Mar 11, 18:17 3

  - The pill is zyrtec and the nasal spary is a perscription that my Dr gave me last week not sure what it is but its probably just perscription flonase - eag Mar 11, 17:06 6
    - Allergy meds work for only about 60% of people. -- nm - tobor.2 Mar 11, 19:50
