Suppression pills

Not long after Morvonids Disease broke out, scientists discovered that the purple coneflower had properties that repelled the sickness. This discovery lead to the creation of a suppression pill, a rose-flavored candy that is very tasty.

Utility

It’s a pill that you can swallow, made easier in combination with water. In poor areas, businessman try to take advantage by buying up all the pills and selling them for much more, often times too much.
Many people enjoy the pill and eat it like candy, which often times results in a low supply in certain areas that rely on it. So even if it has no health detriments, it still effects people if you eat to much of it.

Manufacturing

The pill is made from dried Purple Coneflower, crushed into a sand-like substance, mixed together with a blend of roses and edible goo that hardens and creates a rose-flavored candy-type of pill, easily distributed and pleasant to eat.
Inventor(s)
Anonymous. The inventor did it for the sake of helping others and not to claim any sort of fame. Many have claimed to be the inventor, but as the true maker of the recipe is known to a trusted few, it never leads to anyone being believed to be the true inventor.
Access & Availability
The flowers that make these pills are grown in greenhouses at Morvonids Disease Clinics across the continent and therefore are easily accessible. This means that the pills can be made in abundance and distributed with a very small cost so that many can have it on them at all times.
Complexity
All you need is a pestle and mortar. Some basic medicine skills are needed, as well as the correct measurements, but it is very easy to make, therefore it’s accessibility.
Discovery
Purple Coneflower (Echinacea Purpururea) was discovered to have properties that suppress the symptoms of Morvonids Disease. These are made into pills which can be bought cheap and given to those suffering from Morvonids Disease.
