Historical Use of Heracleia in Western Medicine

Quote Paraph: "Frothy poppy acts as a 'specific' emetic for epilepsy; the 'frothy' structure of the plant could have served as a signature, associating it with the well-known frothing of the epileptic, and its other name of 'heracleia' connects it with the disease of Heracles."
