#2928: LeftisLife

It’s common knowledge among drug manufacturers that pills dissolve into the bloodstream much faster when you lie on your right side.

Someday soon we may have pills which can steer themselves within the stomach, in order to maximise their effectiveness.

Today’s invention is a visual reminder for emergency services personnel, or members of the public, who come upon a suspected overdose victim. It takes the form of a label for eg paracetamol bottles that shows someone being rolled onto their LEFT side: “LeftisLife”.

This will greatly delay absorption of whatever they have taken and perhaps save their life.
