A friend of mine's Dad owned a pharmacy, and my buddy told me of Bromptons Cocktail back in 79-80. He actually worked at the pharmacy and told me they made it one time with the mortar+pestle (sp?) or compounding as it is known in layterms.He said they used the 1 grain morphine tablets(very small, about the size of a microdot if anyone remembers those!) and pharmaceutical cocaine that was made by USP, the bottles of cocaine hydrochloride were ordered in 1 oz portions at the pharmacy and on the side of the bottle it said"small fluffy crystals". I'm almost positve he said it was then mixed with alcohol to make the cocktail which came in a cough syrup bottle. Directions were to swish it around in the mouth and kind of gargle it before swallowing. I'm not going to get myself in trouble here, so let your imagination wander. Ahh... the good ole days!!!! My friend is now a Pharmacist himself now, a chip off the old block!!!
P.S. I remember him telling me that his dad din't grind the morphine very well so he mentioned it to Dad and his reply was,huh, well maybe she'll get a rush off of it!!!! LOL!!
