Change the words 'eye drop' to 'product' and it would be a far better thing for the FDA to say.
Bro they make belladona eye drops that will get you high for 4 days straight the FDA works for the cartels exclusively bro
Putting belladonna in your eyes sounds like an extremely bad idea.
its AMAZING for alergias
Not to mention Algeria.
I'm sorry, I cannot agree that belladonna is good for Algeria.
I think they have enough problems.
I said not to mention Algeria!
I cannot stay silent while the Algerians suffer this epidemic of belladonna eye-poisonings!
Top tier pun
If you are feeling anything from those drops, their process is not diluting it properly and there is a good chance of getting poisoned. Homeopathic shit is supposed to be diluted so much that there is almost no chance of it having any belladonna molecules in it at all. So if there is (which you indicate there are), then their dilution process is fucked and there is a good possibility that it is going to give you brain damage at the very least.
That’s not homeopathic.
its just drugs
