Information
has gloss	(noun) medicine used to treat diarrhea camphorated tincture of opium, paregoric
has gloss	eng: Paregoric, or camphorated tincture of opium, also known as tinctura opii camphorata, is a medication known for its antidiarrheal, antitussive, and analgesic properties. It was a household remedy in the 18th and 19th centuries, when it was widely used to calm fretful children. In the 20th century its use declined as governments regulated it. Until very recently in the U.S., paregoric was a Schedule V drug, and was available over-the-counter in pharmacies in several states by simply signing a register/logbook. Today, paregoric can still be found in the pharmacopeia, but it has been re-regulated as a Schedule III drug under the Controlled Substances Act. The drug is available now only by medical prescription.

has gloss	spa: Del latin "Paregoricus". El llamado elixir paregórico es una mezcla de opio y alcohol. Quizás la más potente bebida con opio vendida en algún momento de la historia, en este caso a principios del siglo XX. Se utilizaba como base alcohol alcanforado de 46º y cada onza de elixir paregórico contenía unos 117 mg de opio, equivalentes a 12 mg de morfina. Su uso básico era como antidiárreico. Se vendía con la etiqueta de la Stickney & Poor Spice Co de Boston, Massachusetts donde se estipulaban las dosis así: Para bebés (de 5-8 gotas), niños (25 gotas) y adultos (una cucharadita). Las intoxicaciones opiáceas eran un riesgo potencial.
