A bottle that once contained granules of strychnine arsenate; in those days, potent poisons such as arsenic or strychnine could be used in small doses.
The major problem was that the therapeutic margin – the difference between the dose that cures and the dose that kills – was very narrow, which led to cases of poisoning...
Strychnine was used as a powerful stimulant against neurasthenia, for example, whilst arsenic was used to treat anaemia.
The two combined could be used against tuberculosis or paralysis.
But even at low doses, there were side effects such as muscle stiffness, spasms, and hypersensitivity to noise or light.
The stopper used here is too large as it does not fit properly.
Height of the bottle: 10 cm with stopper
