A relative latecomer to the patent medicine game, Dr. Thacher’s was most popular in the 1910s and early 20s. Being produced during a time of rapidly improving health standards and legislation, it was quick to draw the attention of governing agencies. In 1914, a relatively famous case, “U.S. v. 48 bottles of Dr. Thacher’s Liver and Blood Syrup”, identified the claims of the product on its packaging and advertising to be “misleading, false, and fraudulent”. This did not stop the product from being sold, but the 48 bottles in question were subsequently destroyed by the United States Marshal.
