According to the opium law and prescription statute of 1930, physicians were duty-bound to maintain a stock ledger to allow a traceable record of the location of narcotic drugs. If a simplification of the prescription of opiates was welcomed 10 years ago then 2 years after amendment of the addictive drugs statute thought should be give to safe use, as can be concluded from a morphine logbook from the time of the introduction of the Federal opium law. "Receipt and issue... deliverer and recipient" must be able to be extracted from the documentation, which means the delivery and the dispensing but not the individual application.

[New documental evidence on the history of homeopathy in Latin America: a case study of links between Rio de Janeiro and Buenos Aires]. / Novas evidências documentais para a história da homeopatia na América Latina: um estudo de caso sobre os vínculos entre Rio de Janeiro e Buenos Aires.

Homeopathy began to spread soon after it was formulated by Samuel Hahnemann in the early 1800s, reaching the Southern Cone in the 1830s. In processes of this kind, one figure is often cited as being responsible for introducing it, often attaining quasi-mythical status. Little is known, however, about how homeopathy reached Argentina at that time. Through archival research, we discovered that medical and lay homeopaths circulated between Rio de Janeiro and Buenos Aires. Given the well-known proselytizing of the circles gravitating around lay homeopaths B. Mure and J.V. Martins in Rio de Janeiro, the documents indicate that this movement actually went as far as Argentina, which had not been confirmed until now.

Resumo A homeopatia começou a propagar-se logo após sua formulação por Samuel Hahnemann, nos primeiros anos do século XIX, chegando ao Cone Sul na década de 1830. Esse processo é tradicionalmente vinculado à figura de um “introdutor”, por vezes alcançando estatuto mítico. No entanto, pouco se sabe acerca da chegada da homeopatia à Argentina nesse período. Com base em trabalho de arquivo, identificamos uma clara circulação de homeopatas médicos e leigos no eixo Rio de Janeiro-Buenos Aires. Dada a conhecida atividade proselitista desenvolvida nos círculos ligados aos homeopatas leigos B. Mure e J.V. Martins no Rio de Janeiro, a documentação disponível aponta para a possível extensão desse movimento também na Argentina, o que não tinha sido evidenciado até o presente.
