Who grew up with brioschi in their medicine cabinet?

[GURPS]

I remember being sick as a dog on a road trip at 14 .... we stopped in the next town, in front of the local bar, all piling ..... the guy that had been driving - I was with my cousins and Uncle - asked the bar tender for a shot of bourbon to settle my stomach ... ya gotta love country medicine

Eat too much? Drink too much? Try Brioschi, mild Brioschi.

My mom bought Coke syrup from the drug store, and we got a spoonful for sore throats and such. I remember the generic brown drug bottle it came in.

What was that stuff. I remember seeing something in my grandmother's medicine cabinet.

Growing up, I think every family had a container of this in their home. Anyone else recall this stuff?

Is it similar to Bromo Seltzer? I remember that in a similar bottle.

We had Bromo in the cabinet and a red bag with a hose hanging in the shower.

Why oh why didn't they put that thing in their rooms? After it dried, it was hanging on the hook on the back of the door.
