Yes. The history channel did a special on this not too long ago. Go to their website and look for the information.

yes and there was lithium in 7 up

Yes ther was cocain in it but sorry I don't kno how much

yes, thats where coke got its name from. i think it was quite a lot, enough to mess you up...todays stuff is just as bad.

They say by 1902 it was only 1/400 of a grain of cocaine in the cola syrup, and coke didn't become completely cocaine free until 1929....look at this website for more info.

When it was first started and sold only by pharmacies. No one knows how much because that was in Coke's secret formula.

They did have cocain in coca cola. Each glass had an estimated amount of nine milligrams of cocaine.
