Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906 primarily aimed to prevent the manufacture, sale, or transportation of adulterated or misbranded or poisonous or deleterious foods, drugs, medicines, and liquors. It required accurate labeling of products, addressing false claims about the contents of patent medicines on the product's label, but it did not specifically outlaw the sale of patent medications containing opium, cocaine, or marijuana.
