Description

Créosote

Antique pharmacy bottle

Green label: SUBSTANCE TO BE SEPARATED - CODEX 1908

This means that this bottle had to be kept separate from the others because it was dangerous due to its corrosive nature and, above all, its extremely strong smell!

Creosote was a remedy used to treat tuberculosis, but it was toxic to the kidneys and liver in high doses or with prolonged use.

It comes from the old basement laboratory of a Parisian pharmacy. The bottles had not been moved from the shelves since the late 1950s!

Bottle height: 19.5 cm including cap
