This week we’re taking our first dive into some of the weird and wonderful things used to treat teething. Today’s fact looks into the history of one of the worlds most addictive drugs. We’ll be looking at some of the marketing used to allure parents - with promises of its harmlessness and suitability. And we’ll be finding out that, until recently, it was still available over-the-counter!
