Brompton cocktail is an elixir meant for use as a pain suppressant, and dosed for prophylaxis. Made from morphine or heroin, cocaine, gin, and sometimes with Thorazine to counteract nausea, it was given to terminally-ill individuals (especially cancer patients) to relieve pain and promote sociability near death.

A common formulation included “a variable amount of morphine, 10 mg of cocaine, 2.5 mL of 98% ethyl alcohol, 5 mL of syrup BP and a variable amount of chloroform water.”
