Pharmacy - Favourite Remedies Postcard

Today we have the FDA, its a part of the govt that watches what goes into medicine and tells us if they work. I can't say that the medicine we use today is really any safer than yesterday, but we will hope it is. The cures of the past however, had all sorts of claims. Many were homaeopathic recipes, traded between friends. Some had terrible narcotics in them and others had poison in them. As the FDA came out, medicine had to at the very least prove they worked, and they couldn't because it was mostly nonsense. So to get by, companies would replace the word "CURE" with the words "REMEDY". And then they were good, could sell it without an issue.
