Vice Ganda Remains Grateful Despite Life's Pains And Disappointments

When asked what her two happiest moments in life were, Vice Ganda said one was the time she gave her mother a new house.

“Iba yung joy na nakita ko sa mukha niya,” said the comedian-TV host.

Vice Ganda’s second happiest moment was when her contract with Saridon and Sarimax was renewed. Even now that she is very successful and always busy, Vice still finds joy in getting new work.

“Pero ang swerte ko. Ang daming happy moments sa life ko.”

No matter how charmed Vice Ganda’s life seems to be, however, it is not without pains and disappointments.

“Pain is something that will always be a part of life; it’s impossible not to have it. The good thing is, more often than not, there is a way to manage it and feel a little bit more pain-free,” said Vice Ganda.“I believe I’m a strong person emotionally so I am most afraid of physical pain. I may have a low threshold for physical pain.”

In the latest campaign of Paracetamol + Propyphenazone + Caffeine (Saridon Triple Action) and Naproxen Sodium (Sarimax) featuring Vice Ganda, the two pain relieving brands serve as a reminder how it’s Better Sari than Sorry!

“I always have Saridon and Sarimax with me because I have aches and pains when I’m working and ang pinaka ayaw ko yung masakit ang tuhod ko,” said Vice Ganda.

Leah Cheryl Manio, MD, Country Medical Lead for Bayer Consumer Health Philippines, said Saridon is an analgesic or pain killer “indicated for relief of mild to severe headaches, relief of pains such as headache, toothache, menstrual discomfort, post-operative and rheumatic pain and relief of pain and fever associated with colds and flu.”

“The tablet starts to release in five minutes,” said Manio.

Meanwhile, Manio said Naproxen Sodium (Sarimax) is an over-the-counter medicine that can address musculoskeletal and joint disorders such as ankylosing spondylitis, osteoarthritis, and rheumatoid arthritis including juvenile idiopathic arthritis. (in short: body and muscle pain, arthritis at rayuma). It can also relieve pains such as dysmenorrhea, headache including migraine, post-operative pain, soft tissue disorders, acute gout, and to reduce fever.

Here are some of Vice Ganda’s replies to the questions addressed to her during the launch:

Two favorite vacation spots

“Hong Kong and Japan. Because of work, I don’t really travel too far and when I travel, it’s usually to shop and eat good food.”

Two favorite companions

“Ion, my happy pill, and my angel Jackie. I can’t live with Jackie kasi siya nakakaalam asan lahat ng gamit ko, including my wallet, my underwear, my medication, etc.”

Two lessons you’ve learned about love

“Love is beautiful but love can be painful.”

Two actors you want to work with

“Sayang, sana sina FPJ and Susan Roces pero sa ngayon, Sarah Geronimo and Regine Alcasid.”
