Abstract: In Malta, opium use for both medicinal and recreational purposes has long been acknowledged. There is a dearth of documented information regarding opium use in Malta, as if this exotic psychotropic drug were the subject of some conspiratorial mystery. Giovanni Bonello examines some of the uses of opium since the times of the Knights.
