It was cheap... I think only a couple of dollars with my crappy benefit plan. They did have to order it in so make sure you get it before hand. It's not pill, it was a little vile that I broke the top off, I sucked it up in a syringe, removed the needle part and squirted it into the back of my throat. I heard from another girl she was told to mix it in apple juice?
As for it's use I am not sure.... I thought it was to help control bleeding during surgery but then why do they give us blood thinners after?
