Royal Pharmaceutical Society Museum
Would you consume human skull to cure your epilepsy? Have you ever seen a unicorn horn? Would you rub the grease of a dead bear on your head?
From Ancient Greek medical theories, to a rare penicillin culture vessel; from a mummified hand to the fastest selling drug in the world. All of these and more can be found in this collection of over 45,000 objects including a beautiful collection of English delftware drug storage jars amongst which is the oldest known dated piece.
