Does coca cola have penicillin in it?!


Question:

Does coca cola have penicillin in it?


Answers:
No penicillin. It is rumored that it is made with Coca leaves (the same stuff used to make cocaine), but Coca Cola neither denies nor confirms the rumor.

NO or i would be dead i love cola and penicillin makes my throate close up

people can have an allergic reaction to penicillin which can kill them

do you think coca cola would put such a thing in their drink

I shouldn't think so for one minutes. If it did you'd probably have to get in prescription

no

Nope. Back in the old days it was sold as a medicine because of its stimulant properties. It was more a 'tonic' than a cure in the way we think about medicine onw. For a bit more info on it have a look at the wikipedia entry http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/coca-cola... .

i hope not cause im highly allergic and break out all over in hives

no why have you heard it does ?

the ingredients of coke if recall correctly are water ,caramel , sugar,phosphoric acid and caffeine.There are people who suggest cochineal is added for colouring ( cochineal is a cactus parasite which exudes a red liquid when squeezed)

no it doesn't, if it did then wooo that will be one tasty doctors prescription!

it was rumoured once that coke was actually in coca cola, to the point that i think certain bottles were removed from store floors, but not all, and it is true the company never denied or said the rumour was true, which does leave the suspicion because i did read once that a certain stock of cola was pulled back suddenly with very little media coverage.

but obviously you don't always need the media to hype it up for a rumour to spread (whether this is actually true i don't know)

no i think that it would be illegal

No

I'm curious...where did you hear that?

hope not, or maybe thats what makes me want to vomit when i drink it. Am allergic 2 penicillin.

no but in the olden days it had cocaine in it

i don't think it would be wise to put penicillin in any drink.
