This has been me for the past few days…..lts so dry man and ive got a terrible cold, and we are out of Sudafed.

Fun fact though, basically none of the cold medicines we use today existed in the 1910s outside of home remedies you may have been given by your parents like warm broth soup, fruit juice, a warm towel on your head, tea, and honey water for a sore throat. The only medicine that we use today for common cold symptoms that existed and were readily useable then then were asprin and Vicks Vaporub (which that has a super sweet story behind it look it up!).

(Following is a list of active ingredients in brand name over the counter medicines used today. Many use the same chemicals but in different amounts)

Dextromethorphan? 1954

Fluticasone propionate? 1980.

acetaminophen? Existed but not widely available until the 1950s. You could really only get it from hospitals.

Ibuprophine? 1961.

phenylephrine? 1927.

pseudoephedrine? In herbal remedies in east asian cultures, but not on the market till 1920s for everyone else.

guaifenesin? Invented in 1912 but not available outside of prescription by a doctor unil 1952.

And very few effective non topical antibiotics existed until penicillin came around in 1928.

Everything else around was either a herbal remedies based on culture like peppermint tea and cinnamon sweets, or were “patent medicines” aka the actual snake oil and poisons your conspiracy brained family member is convinced “big pharma” is REALLY putting in your advil (spoiler alert, its not. its just acetaminophen, binding agents, and color dye) + cocaine and heroine.

But there were electric stoves! And water is free so turning your house into a giant hot shower is now a viable option to clear them sinuses.

….be grateful for your modern meds kids. (Also alex summers debut in this au!)

SO. Remember that rag time version of mcr’s “teenagers” I found?

Well… i may have come up with some time period appropriate lyrics to it and am making a comic with my turn of the century x men evolution au for it. Because it feels appropriate for the X-Men fight against anti-mutant hate. Heres the first part, will reblog with subsequent parts.

Tw: historically accurate issues to the 1910s, including references to horribly inaccurate “race sciences”, ableism, sexism, eugenics, asylums, systemic child abuse, and pre OSHA work place safety standards, etc. this comic is an indictment of those things not a glorification. You have been warned.
