Not any more. Until the early 1900's Coke use to contain a cocaine derivative but was banned. The trade name Coke still remains from that time. Interesting also is that up until the early 1900's you could also buy needle and syringe sets from Sears and over the counter at drug stores.

Answer 7

It used to be, sort of. It was originally made (in syrup form) to be dispensed at a pharmacy. The pharmacist would mix the syrup with carbonated water, and give it to "patients" as a cure-all.

It contained a derivative from the coca plant, which is how it got it's name. But the effect of the chemical was minimal, and the ingredient became very costly, so Coca Cola switched over to caffeine.

Answer 8

It contained a small amount of cocaine decades ago, but not anymore.

Answer 9

Originally it did contain some, but not anymore. It would likely be more expensive.
