(um, what's the point of the last sentence?)

I'm not sure what the point of the last sentence of this article is. "Polypseudomorphine" doesn't imply anything; for example, [[wikipedia:Pseudoephedrine|pseudoephedrine]] (a real-life drug) isn't "fake [[wikipedia:Ephedrine|ephedrine]]", nor is it synthetic. The name simply appears to be an attempt at creating a drug name that sounds exotic but is recognizable (pretty much everyone knows what [[wikipedia:Morphine|morphine]] is and does), but isn't a real drug. Seeing as the sentence isn't sourced it's probably better just to remove it. --[[User:Coredesat|Core]][[User talk:Coredesat|<font color="#006449">desat</font>]] 23:25, 17 November 2010 (EST)

Drug name[edit]

I'm not sure what the point of the last sentence of this article is. "Polypseudomorphine" doesn't imply anything; for example, pseudoephedrine (a real-life drug) isn't "fake ephedrine", nor is it synthetic. The name simply appears to be an attempt at creating a drug name that sounds exotic but is recognizable (pretty much everyone knows what morphine is and does), but isn't a real drug. Seeing as the sentence isn't sourced it's probably better just to remove it; it doesn't add to the article at all. --Coredesat 23:25, 17 November 2010 (EST)
