Upset stomach and a bad taste in your mouth seem like the worst side effects. Those might be my favorite. I wouldn't mind that to save myself.

This medication has a black box warning on it! It's not something to be taken lightly. Always be cautious and informed about any medication.

It's incredible to think that such a simple-looking drug can counteract something as dangerous as these toxins. The mechanism behind it is fascinating, but I'm not a doctor. Could someone explain in more detail how it works?

I once accidentally drank some windshield washer fluid as a kid. I was lucky to get immediate treatment with Fomepizole. I'll forever be grateful for this drug.
