“History of Pharmacy” is one of the mandatory lectures in all pharmacy colleges, here in Turkey. Also, it was my favorite to study...still learning about new stuff around the part of world pharmaceutical history such as the effect of WWII and the patent war. This video made me realized once again the heart of pharma industry beats in Germany. Long live the Paracelsus long live the science!

Paracelsus doses his chickens with ether and remarks that this could be super useful for surgery and then humans just party with it for a few centuries before Long and Morton independently use it for surgery, Crawford Long, a country doctor in Georgia i think, his friends came up to him and wanted nitrous but he didn’t have any, so he made them ether and they had so much fun they didn’t notice their cuts and bruises from stumbling around. this had occurred to doctors who attended “nitrous frolics” too, an earlier attempt by another doctor to use nitrous failed in demonstration a couple years before Morton did his demonstration iirc- It’s funny though that it took so long, and like much else had independent discovery at nearly the same time. Sorry for rambling this is awesome. I collect old pharma books. Out of curiosity, how does the process and labware Paracelsus used to make it compare to more modern methods?

Is it scientific to say that we settle into a new chemical equilibrium after medicine Yes, it is scientific to say that when we take medicine, it can lead to a new chemical equilibrium within our body. Medications often contain chemicals that interact with our body's biochemical processes to achieve a desired therapeutic effect. This can involve altering the concentrations of specific molecules, enzymes, or receptors in the body to restore balance or address a medical condition. The concept of achieving a new chemical equilibrium is commonly used in pharmacology and medicine to explain how drugs work within the body. ChatGPT ❤❤🎉🎉
