Apparently, cooking chicken in Nyquil is a thing.
The Food and Drug Administration is warning people against taking part in an online trend that involves using over-the-counter drugs, most notably liquid NyQuil or other cough and cold medication, in cooking.
“Boiling a medication can make it much more concentrated and change its properties in other ways. Even if you don’t eat the chicken, inhaling the medication’s vapors while cooking could cause high levels of the drugs to enter your body. It could also hurt your lungs. Put simply: Someone could take a dangerously high amount of the cough and cold medicine without even realizing it,” the FDA said.
“Sit down with your children and discuss the dangers of misusing drugs and how social media trends can lead to real, sometimes irreversible, damage. Remind your children that overdoses can occur with OTC drugs as well as with prescription drugs,” FDA said.
