It needs one more letter. - 0095ca4c, Aug 18, 2013

Yes, you're right, I see that now. :) - rac1, Aug 19, 2013

Topical is an adjective and there are no plural adjectives in English. - ian-hill, Aug 19, 2013

Hi Ian....I've heard doctors use it for medications that must be applied externally. The way they use it, it sounds like a noun, "I will give you a prescription for some topicals. However, I bow to your expertise. I will remove it. - 0095ca4c, Aug 19, 2013

In that case put it back amiga because if you do add an S to an adjective it does become a noun x :) - ian-hill, Aug 19, 2013

Ok...it's like packing your 'smalls' when you go on vacation. jaja - 0095ca4c, Aug 19, 2013

Yes, I was trying to bold the letter A, and since I already had it bold, I thought Ah-ha I'll put it in italics and of course the wine I'm enjoying right now has me a little goofy! (Just teasing of course, it's a coca cola) - bandit51jd, Aug 19, 2013
