DRUG LEGISLATION IN THE UNITED STATES, FEDERAL LAWS. CONDITIONS EXISTING PRIOR TO LEGISLATION IN 1848. Previous to the enactment of the Federal law in 1848 governingthe importation of adulterated and spurious drugs, medicines, andchemicals, various forces were at work endeavoring not only to min-imize this dangerous practice, but also to expose fraudulent dealingsin medicinal agents of home production. One of the chief objects of establishing the Philadelphia Collegeof Pharmacy, 1821, was To direct attention to the quality of drugsbrought into the market. The New York College of Pharmacy hadfor a series of years called attention to the fact that large quantitiesof sophisticated and misnamed chemical and pharmaceutical prepa-rations were daily imported. The American Medical Association also exerted a powerful influ-ence in bringing about legislation which would tend to prevent theimportation of fraudulent medicinal agents.
