What are kidney pills supposed to do? Help flush out impurities or something? I assume salt tablets are use to replace what's lost through sweating. Why not use table salt?

Suppositories for the sister who always was constipated, the Dramamine for the sister who got car sick, the goofballs for the brother who had "behavioral issues," and my father's Maalox. My mother kept bandages because she insisted on using an old fan in the kitchen that didn't have any cover over the blades, so she was always somehow cutting her hand and fingers horribly.
