Anstie hypodermic drug tests challenged in medical critique
A critical review discusses Dr Anstie’s practice of injecting drugs beneath the skin, questioning the utility of opium, atropine, aconitine, and podophyllin while noting other agents in the list may be inert. The piece advocates reform in therapeutics and anticipates better methods for assessing drug uses. It praises the Practitioner journal for leading change and highlights broader church and literary notes.
