(Not Georgian era, but still medicine from the past.) Tin of chocolate worm cakes London, ca. early 20th century.  In the early 20th century, children were regularly fed ‘worm cakes’ to keep tapeworms at bay. Such ‘medicine’ was unpopular and often tasted revolting. The cakes in this tin have been made more palatable through the addition of chocolate flavouring.

Laudanum, sometimes called "tincture of opium", is just what it sounds like: a mixture of opium and alcohol.  It was used in both the 18th and 19th centuries as a sedative and painkiller, but is more commonly associated with the latter.  Because it worked as a depressant, those who took it either for medicinal purposes or out of an addiction had to be careful: take enough to knock yourself out, and you just might never wake up again....

Helonia vaginal tablets with opium. These were inserted into the vagina to cure the embarrassing problem of Leukorrhea, vulgarly known as "the whites."  It refers to vaginal discharge, which is usually normal, but not appreciated in olden days. I'm not sure stuffing opium in your vagina would help, but then again I'm not an old-timey medicine show man. So what do I know? Medical Antiques, Medical Devices, Medical Treatment
