Antichi manoscritti inediti sulle “visite alle spezierie” della città di Firenze e dintorni (2017)

unapi

Two laws (1561 and 1562) established in the area of Florence a special office with the function of inspecting apothecaries, and entrusted it to the responsibility of the Medical College of Florence. Written evidence of these inspections, which were annual and extraordinary, date back as far as at least the first half of the nineteenth century; it is proof of inspections in areas whose size varied according to the political-administrative organization of the time. Thanks to it, we know that the Veditori (inspectors, literally “watchers”) were employed to examine the licenses to practice and, above all, to test the “simple” and the “compounds” substances for sale, their quality and quantity, also with reference to the recommendations of Ricettario fiorentino, probably the first official pharmaceutical code published in Italy.
