After reviewing the notions of Paracelsus concerning medicine and his ideas about knowledge and science, the author discusses his contributions to medicine and science. He also discusses the reasons for his popularity. The general conclusion is that Paracelsian medicine represented a return to the supernaturalistic healing practices of the past.
The pharmacy of the 115 Saint Honoré street was successively kept by François, by his two sons Jean-François and Louis-Charles, and by the son-in-law of the elder, François-Bernard who took the Bernard-Derosne family name. The two brothers made many chemical studies, among which the "essential salt" of the opium extract, and the sugar purification. Louis-Charles had many industrial activities, in Chaillot, where he made vapor engines. The two brothers were members of the Académie Royale de Médecine, and Jean-François was twice the President of the Société de Pharmacie de Paris.
