Sumario:A collection of more than one hundred medical recipes from the late 18th century was donated by Presbyter Cipriano Rodríguez Santa María, institutional eponym of the collection at the Historical Archive “Octavio Arizmendi Posada” of the library of the Universidad de La Sabana in Colombia.

In this article, we describe one of these recipes for the treatment of smallpox and measles as a contribution to the history of medicine in Colombia.
