We ship several times a week and your prompt payment will hasten the turn-around time.
    This Rx kit was probably something that a medical personal kept in their possession for field emergencies.  It contained a little of everything from pain killer to stimulant, for children and even for veterinarian use.   More than one list OPIUM as an ingredient and others even had a narcotic title.  These are ALL EMPTY and USED but 19 out of 20 made it back into the kit empty and are sealed with cap and protected in a leather carrying case.  A great time capsule of products that were used by the first responders of yesteryear,
    check it out!
