Arthur heard this and immediately took out the prescription from his pocket: "Can you help me take a look and see what these medicines are for?"
Snow took the slightly wrinkled piece of paper and lowered his head to carefully scan the medicine names.
He first lightly tapped "Laudanum" with his fingertip: "This is a common analgesic and sedative. You know, almost all chronic patients and those with nervous fatigue use it."
Then his fingers slid to "Valerian Root Powder" and "Lemon Balm Tea": "These two are mild herbal sedatives, mainly used to relieve anxiety and insomnia. If prescribed for a female patient, it might also be to soothe her... uh, monthly emotional fluctuations."
Soon after, he gently tapped on the line for "Fragrant Balsam Tincture": "This can be used as an anti-inflammatory for the respiratory tract or as an inhalant sedative, commonly used for patients prone to fainting or rapid breathing."
