Panacea
(redirected from Panacea (Greek mythology))

    Also found in: Medical, Wikipedia, Hutchinson 0.03 sec.

Some antidote or remedy that completely solves a problem. Most so-called panaceas in this industry, if they survive at all, wind up sitting alongside and working with the products they were supposed to replace. In addition, nothing solves a problem without introducing its own new set of problems. See Systemantics.

Panacea
daughter of Greek god of healing. [Gk. Myth.: Kravitz, 37]
See : Medicine
