Chemineau Labs, the link between your needs and the solution
-
René Chemineau, a researcher at the Pasteur Institute, moved to Vouvray. He manufactures, from 1921, in premises adjacent to the pharmacy (which dates from 1848), the "Gargyl" mouthwash based on Coca leaf extract. In 1930, 2 million bottles are produced each year and sold in France, Belgium, Algeria and Africa. In 1945, sulfacetamide (acquired stocks of the U.S. Army) is added to the "Gargyl". In the following year, the extract of coca leaf is removed from the formula.
