Give ‘em 3 Tylenols

Priceless:

If a patient is looking for pain pills, hand them three regular Tylenol pills. If the patients ask what they are getting, they are told they are getting “Tylenol “¦. number three.” Not a lie. They really are getting three Tylenol pills. Good placebo effect. Probably half of the patients who get “Tylenol “¦ number three” get significant relief with plain ol’ acetaminophen.
