Paracetamoxyfrusebendroneomycin

The BNF has 20,000 different drugs to take - so Adam Kay and Suman Biswas thought "What could we produce to give you all a break?"

In a nutshell: Paracetamoxyfrusebendroneomycin is a cure-all, but has some rather unusual side-effects...

In case you hadn't gathered, Adam and Suman are real medics (Adam's a gynecologist and Suman's an anaesthetist) at a London NHS hospital, who since their medical school days have had a sideline in witty songs - usually covering health matters (their early ones tended to take the Michael out of rival establishments) - hence their collective name - "The Amateur Transplants". If you test out their other songs, try "The Drugs Song" and "Anaesthetist's Hymn". Not forgetting "A Letter To The Patient's GP Please, Angela" and probably half a dozen others that are just as good. Just be aware that "London Underground" probably has more 'blue' words than the rest of their songs put together, and advocates a serious breach of the Hippocratic Oath.
