These designs lighten up the prescription lot. Leichter’s cases are distinguished by short witty phrases that read “My Tiara is Giving Me a Headache,” “Now You Know Why I’m Smiling” and “Dose of Reality.” These unusual [medicinal messages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zoobree-nebulizer) can provide necessary comical relief for those who may be suffering a great deal.
