paragoric meds

Hey Everyone,

I was doing some research on older opiate meds. I cam across paragoric medication. It was opiate that was given over the counter (I believe) quite some time ago. Not sure if this was a problem for addicts at the time but was looking to see if any of us older folk remember what this is.

Not too sure. I think it might have been for digestive problems or ibs. Sorry all I know.
