H. Brown, MD - Medical Self Delusion
“Part of the blame of over-medication rests, as I have said, with the profession, in yielding to the tendency to self delusion, which seems almost inseparable from the practice; in our mode of inference, too often adopted, of counting only our favorable cases, and in falling into the not uncommon error known in scholastic phrase as “post hoc ergo propter hoc”: The patient got well after taking my medicines, therefore he got well because of taking them.

The greater Portion of this blame, however, rests properly with the public, which insists on its right to be poisoned by somebody... Like Barnum of illustrious memory, they believe in and practice on the measureless gullibility of a public which actually enjoys being humbugged. The whole dishonest and shameless business is built, as on a rock, upon the popular delusion that sick people must feed upon noxious substances, the more the better, the nastier the more effective.

The outside pressure upon the physician is very great, tending to force him to active treatment, whether in his judgment necessary or not. Some error of diet, some improper habit of the patient, may only need correction, and the administration of drugs be unnecessary or hurtful.”

― H. Brown, MD, Huntsville, Kentucky, 1892
