At the time when antibiotics and other pharmacy products did not exist, a bulb of garlic itself represented a whole pharmacy industry due to the broad spectrum of effects. Most different suppositions involving this herb are mentioned; some of them were so pointless that they disappeared in time, but some of them have remained until the present days. The garlic was given different names that are still in use such as 'Russian penicillin', 'natural antibiotic', 'vegetable viagra', 'plant talisman', 'rustic's theriac', 'snake grass' etc. Presentation of the development of ideas associated with garlic and the evolution of the notions increased the ability of the pharmacists and physicians to respond to the challenges of their professional services in facilitating human life.
在抗生素和其他药品尚未出现的时代，由于大蒜具有广泛的功效，一颗大蒜本身就代表了整个制药行业。人们提到了关于这种草药的大多数不同猜测；其中一些毫无意义，随着时间的推移而消失了，但有些一直流传至今。大蒜有不同的名称，至今仍在使用，如“俄罗斯青霉素”、“天然抗生素”、“植物伟哥”、“植物护身符”、“乡下人万能药”、“蛇草”等。阐述与大蒜相关的观念发展以及概念的演变，提高了药剂师和医生应对其专业服务中促进人类生活挑战的能力。
