I thought you might have meant Potassium nitrate (Saltpeter) but didn't find what I was looking for, so I looked up Potassium Bromide, and according to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_bromide I found out that it was given to people in 1857 because
it was commonly thought that epilepsy was caused by masturbation. !! Too funny.
