Antipyrin was created in 1883 by Ludwig Knorr as a substitute for quinine, also known as phenazone. Initially, it was a quinine substitute, then an analgesic, anti-inflammatory and antipyretic (designed to reduce fever), and was also used for its soothing effects on headaches. It was the first synthetic drug to be created, rather than obtained from natural elements such as plants or bark.
Antipyrin remained the world's most widely used medicine until aspirin dethroned it in the early years of the twentieth century.
