Wikipedia says Paregoric is a 4% opium, no wonder we liked it!
It used to be over the counter.

Something or a combination of items here, were used when I stayed home, sick, from school. I remember watching the "Morning Matinee" which had great old movies. Back then the movies weren't THAT old. My Mom would wait on me "hand and foot". God rest her soul.
Also Noxzema right out of the refrigerator to cool a hot sun burn!

Paregoric is camphorated opium and a little on a q-tip was great for teething babies. It was prescription only but I used it on all of our kids.

Bactine was my mom's go to disinfectant. It stung, but she would blow on it to help take away the sting. Not sure it actually took it away as much as the placebo effect of mom doing something to help.
