opium
Pasó mucho tiempo para que el opio se arraigase en China. La adormidera y el opio fueron introducidos de manera separada durante la dinastía Tang (618-907). La adormidera se popularizó como planta ornamental y en la dinastía Song (960-1279) empezó a ser consumida con propósitos alimenticios y terapéuticos. Por su parte, el opio fue usado con fines curativos como parte de compuestos triacales, pero no se implantó firmemente y pasado un tiempo dejó de mencionarse. Los invasores mongoles (1271-1368) confiaban en la medicina musulmana y fueron acompañados por médicos persas, quienes dieron a conocer el látex de opio. Estos médicos eran conscientes de los riesgos de la droga, por lo que la usaban de manera moderada y solo en casos extremos, prefiriendo recetar adormidera en las demás situaciones

: Though I feel your references are fragmentary (they often are), and we can't check out the missing bits for ourselves. Toni's is better.
