There is what appears to be a description of a medicine but perhaps it was a note for an over the counter item as the slip is with the patient's name, date, or name of the prescribing physician. L. S. Williams was a noted local Baltimore pharmacist who in the early 1900s held leadership positions in local pharmacist organizations. The company produced is own medicine bottles, some of which may still be available in the collectibles market.

It is associated with an well-known and established firm and is associated with the largest city in the State of Maryland. A prescription, often abbreviated Rx, is a formal communication from a physician or other registered health-care professional to a pharmacist, authorizing them to dispense a specific prescription drug for a specific patient. Historically, it was a physician's instruction to an apothecary listing the materials to be compounded into a treatmentâ"the symbol (a capital letter R, crossed to indicate abbreviation) comes from the first word of a medieval prescription, Latin: Recipere (Take thou), that gave the list of the materials to be compounded. The word "prescription", from "pre-" ("before") and "script" ("writing, written"), refers to the fact that the prescription is an order that must be written down before a drug can be dispensed. Those within the industry will often call prescriptions simply "scripts". The idea of prescriptions dates back to the beginning of history. So long as there were medications and a writing system to capture directions for preparation and usage, there were prescriptions. Modern prescriptions are actually extemporaneous prescriptions (from the Latin ex tempore, "at/from the time"), meaning that the prescription is written on the spot for a specific patient with a specific ailment. This is distinguished from a non-extemporaneous prescription that is a generic recipe for a general ailment. Modern prescriptions evolved with the separation of the role of the pharmacists from that of the physician. Single sheet, printed on one side Presumed First Edition, one of multiple printings.
