Definitions
Patent medicine refers to a commercial product that is sold as a remedy for various ailments, often without requiring a prescription. These medicines are typically marketed with claims of effectiveness and safety, but they may lack scientific evidence to support such claims. Historically, many patent medicines contained a mixture of ingredients, including alcohol, opiates, and other substances, and were often sold in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
