Coca-Cola was created in 1886 by pharmacist John Stith Pemberton. When it was first introduced, the beverage contained stimulants from coca leaves and caffeine from kola nuts, which worked together synergistically. The names "coca" and "kola" inspired the product's name and led to its marketing as a "healthy tonic." Pemberton, who had been severely injured during the American Civil War, developed an addiction to morphine pain medication. During that period, cocaine was promoted as a remedy for opioid addiction, prompting him to create the beverage as a patent medicine aimed at managing his dependence.
