 * I disagree that this fails GNG. I have left several sources regarding the topic on the page, and will likely find more as I go. I do intend to improve this page and monitor for vandalism over time. If the powers that be still are not convinced, I'd at least like some good suggestions for what to merge this with.

 * The sources you mention seem to be primary sources, like advertisements and letters made by the owner or webshops that sell old bottles of the item. The only reliable source is the fact that an old bottle is in the catalogue of a museum, but that alone doesn't establish notability. --MrClog (talk) 19:12, 11 May 2019 (UTC)


 * Keep. The product seems to have been widely known in the 19th century.  There are several articles in medical journals offering recipes to mimic the medication; Journal of Rational Medicine repeated in Journal of Materia Medica, The Standard Formulary and this looks like a reader's letter, but is likely a disguised advertisment.  American Philatelist has a substantial discussion of the product's history in 1973. SpinningSpark 23:36, 11 May 2019 (UTC)
