    It just hit me, in case you’re thinking of “child-proof” seals, THOSE are intended to keep children safe from the contents..“Tamper proof” seals, on the other hand are to let you know if the bottle has been tampered with and poisonous substances possibly added. Since poison is already poisonous..:-)

    In very small doses it prevents blood clots. There are herbal remedies for blood clots too much better for you but the FDA doesn’t make money from them

    newer yes…..better……not necessarily.Aspirin works on your platelets the other drugs you are referring to inhibit blood coagulation……and there is a big difference

    Back in the day, poisons were labeled with a skull & crossbones. Haven’t seen that for while.

    Xarelto costs TEN DOLLARS A PILL. I doubt it costs that much to make, but it cost a lot to do the research. When you write a great book, the copyright lets you make money off it.. In the French Revolution, they tried abolishing copyrights, and the publishing industry collapsed to only writing that took no brains to make. In the case of a drug, you ought to be doing it for the good of mankind, not money. Still, as Adam Smith sez, “It is not from the benevolence of the butcher, the brewer, or the baker, that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own self interest.”

    That’s to keep someone from adding the Antidote!

    If you’ve ever seen a rat dying from rat poison you won’t ever do it again. It is very slow and very cruel. She was the mother and we found the now abandoned young looking for her and for food. we’ll stick to traps in future.

    Probably not necessary. I would never tamper with a walrus.

    You are safe, unless you are a seal. Some walrus prey on young seals…

    I think one reason why they stopped putting the skull and crossbones is because young kids think pirates when they see it and drink it because they’re playing pirate. Also, someone could tamper with the rat poison, maybe they could add something that will turn the poison into a gas when it’s exposed to the air.

    The “Skull and Crossbones” are still used on Workplace Hazardous Materials (WHMIS) labels
