I love these! They're from the 1950s.

We owe a pharmacist, James Vernor, for our nation's oldest soda:

where are all these drugs now? The only tow that I've seen around are phenobarbital and that sleep aid drug. Have they all been replaced by better things?

Enjoyed this post--really makes you think and puts you back into the time period of "unregulated" drugs! Scary world!
 
Very interesting. Did they really give kids Nembutal suppositories?

And is "Functional GI Spasm" 1940-speak for irritable bowel syndrome? Thank heavens we have Zelnorm for that now. We've made so much progress. LOL
 
OMG... Morinidine is the best! What will we do if our pregnant women can't cook us some breakfast!
