A small, pocket-sized pharmaceutical box that once contained Desedogastrine Zizine tablets, marketed as a digestive remedy to relieve stomach pain after meals. Its miniature, "pocket-sized candy box" format suggests a portable use, typical of medications from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The circular typography and orange hue give this object a strong visual presence, characteristic of older pharmaceutical products intended for digestive and sedative purposes.
