No, I was never able to buy diamorphine OTC, but a stockman told me 'Son, if you're ever crook after a night out, go tell the chemist and he'll take you out the back and give you some of this stuff called draught. You'll throw your guts up, but you will get better'. Much later I asked a pharmacist about it and he said that it contained bicarb of soda, aspirin, and diamorphine. Discontinuesd in 1968.
Preludin was better than amphetamine, IMO. Smoother. That was put off the market at the same time.
