A convenient cheap tonic, L'seful for patients breaking off opium habit.
Opium Remedies. — The markets are flooded with quack remedies of all descriptions, of foreign and home manufacture, and especially of Japanese origin. It is hardly too sweeping to say that nine-tenths of them contain opium or morphine, and hut transfer the habit to another form — the pjatent pill form. And the remaining tenth are practically without value, unless by way of suggestion. In all these cases the remedy is far w...orse than the disease, and the exploitation of these poor people by this form ol patent nostrum \-illainy demands the serious consideration of all interested persons.
Quoting from the health officer of Shanghai, Dr. Stanley: "The attempt to stamp out the opium habit in China has produced a multitude of anti-opium medicines.
Many of these contain morphia, others atropin, and others consist merely of inert matter.
"They may be all classed among the frauds, active or passive. Even in the hands of a specially qualified medical man, the cure of the opium habit by means of drugs is one of the greatest difficulty; that a proprietary medicine could effect such a cure is practically impossible." The name of these remedies is legion.
