Exhibits on dosage forms

Abstract: new exhibits in the hall of pharmaceutical history at the Smithsonian Institution. These plans included a comprehensive presentation of five special exhibits on solid dosage forms of medicines such as tablets and suppositories. The material and tools designed and employed in the manufacture of these forms tell, in part, an interesting story of pharmaceutical development. Most of these preparations, since ancient times, have been used to administer medications in more convenient and uniform doses than the customary potions and decoctions. In 1959, the script was reviewed and the exhibits were placed in production. By August 1960, five especially designed cases for the exhibition had been completed and assembled for public display in the newly renovated gallery of medical sciences of the Smithsonian Institution where they now stand. The story told by these five unique exhibits on topics so closely connected with community and manufacturing pharmacy should be a challenge for promoting the educational aspects of the profession. In the near future the items in these cases will be incorporated into a large one-unit exhibition depicting the development of pharmaceutical manufacture between the 1830's and the 1930's. The new exhibit will emphasize items that influenced the primary steps leading to the rise of large-scale modern production of pharmaceutical preparations.
