But Nytol is non-habit forming. I read that on the box every time I take it

Contrary to popular belief, while the Coriolis effect is real, it does NOT effect the direction in which water drains. Its effect is so small that it only effects things over VERY large distances and time (like weather paterns). Differences in water drainage are affected by how the container was filled (if it was filled swirling in one direction, it will drain the same way) as well as the shape and microscopic imperfections of the container. Studies have been done where water was left at rest for weeks, to guarantee no effect from the direction of filling. When drained, the Coriolis effect was measured to affect the movement of the water by only a fraction of a percent.
