[Drugs and pharmacists for the army, 1800-1815]
Abstract:
SUMMARY During this period, the authority was exerted by Parmentier, as the head and chief pharmacist for the French armies. For the military hospitals scattered all over Europe, he organised the pharmacies services rules, with technical and financial concerns. The first aid devices on the battlefield included a special box for pharmacy containing ressucitation and siccative items for the wounds, and immediately available for the surgeon's use. The qualified pharmacy staff exhibited large variations, from 200 to 1.100 people in 1812.
