Publisher's Synopsis

""More Secret Remedies, What They Cost And What They Contain: Secret Remedies, Second Series"" is a book written by the British Medical Association in 1912. It is a follow-up to their previous publication ""Secret Remedies, What They Cost And What They Contain"" and continues to expose the dangers and lack of regulation in the patent medicine industry. The book provides detailed information on the ingredients and costs of various popular medicines, revealing that many of them contained harmful substances such as opium, arsenic, and lead. The British Medical Association hoped that this book would raise awareness and encourage the government to take action to regulate the patent medicine industry. Overall, ""More Secret Remedies"" is an important historical text that sheds light on the dangers of unregulated medicines and the need for consumer protection.Based On Analyses Made For The British Medical Association.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
