Can I get nicotine sticks on the NHS?!


Question: The kind of medication I would require comes in packs of twenty, and contains an added vitamin supplement called tobacco.
Is it possible to find a doctor who will write me a prescription reading-
'To be taken orally forty times a day. Alcohol must be taken additionally to obtain the maximum benefits from this medication'?

Sadly I doubt it, old boy.

With 'New' Labour in power all of life's little luxuries are being withdrawn- alcohol, tobacco, hunting with dogs, the freedom to dive on the Titanic and remove artifacts...

i dont see why not.. just ask your doc to help you kill yourself with cigs

If you find a doc that will prescribe them, let me know. Prescriptions are free in Wales :o)

Sorry no.

If you live in Scotland or Wales, you actually get paid for such treatment, as the appropriate parliament/assembly has decided to use the generous English tax revenue to subsidise their health needs.

Unfortunately, the English have to pay through the nose for such remedies.

Doctor Who? would he?could he? should he?

Tailor-mades don't qualify I'm afraid. You could try tobacco, I suggest St. Julian Empire, it's from the colonies you know. It's also a requirement that you should get a bottle of Makeson on the same presciption, it is an essential pick-me-up and contains iron. A worthy supplement that no good Dr would refuse.

I have heard that cannabis can be prescribed by GPs in certain rare cases, so why not tobacco for the rest of us, who are just as much in (gasp) need as the more rarified amongst us?

Or you could try my herbal remedy - costs next to nothing and smells absolutely disgusting (so I am told!) - but a smoke is a smoke ain't it?

I suggest you pop along to see my doctor old chap there's not an ailment that he can't cure with a prescription of either gin, brandy, fine cigars, exotic meats or pornography. He thinks I'm a hypochondriac I'm there that often, yes he's an absolute life saver old boy (Not literally of course) Tip top.

What the deuce are you on about Daveshire? Good cigars come from Havana in boxes of 50 not 20, unless you mean cigarettes? Stay clear of them old chap, damned risky smoking them. Just about as risky as smoking those Jamaican rat cigars that Rotter gives out to his guests along with that battery acid he calls gin. Damned cheapskate, I say, old chap, its not you that has been at his gin is it? As for obtaining the demon weed, Nicotinus Vulgaris on prescription, see old Doc Woodward over at Snoddington -on- Sea, and mention the photos that I have from Madam Fifi's Pleasure Palace, that should turn up trumps. What?

Dear Sir,

I am certified to perscribe such treatements and have been for the past decade. Little do them so call "doctors" know that alcohol is used to cure sore throat - you see - it kills all the nasty germs in your system - and tobacco is used as an addition to alcohol - just for taste - and to rid unwanted non-smokers from your proximity, thus, ridding you of your headachs and other achs caused by them. Cheers old chap.

I know you can get Crab Sticks ( Tesco`s) but they`re very difficult to light old boy.
