This is an art work that can be found in the British Museum that I often go by if I want to get to the Mexican gallery, which I frequently do. It is a poor photo but the art work is a representation of all the drugs the average person is likely to have to take over the course of their life time. There are many thousands of pills here and it tends to be more for women, with the likes of long term drugs like the contraceptive pill and HRT, than it is for men. It is apparently the case that 90% of the pills we will take will be in the last 5 years of our lives, which makes sense.
