A pharmacist walked into his shop to find a man leaning against the wall.
“What’s wrong with him?” he asked his assistant.
“He came in for cough syrup, but I couldn’t find any so I gave him an entire box of laxatives”.
“You idiot” said the pharmacist “You can’t treat a cough with laxatives”.
“Of course you can” the assistant replied
“Look at him… he is too afraid to cough now!!”
