“Watson: the Needle!” As originally conceived by his author, the primary motivation of the world’s most famous fictional detective is cocaine......But it was the exchange between Holmes and Watson at the beginning of The Sign of Four that established for all time the nature of Holmes’ habit, and Watson’s attitude to it. The story starts in Holmes’ study, with the detective taking a syringe from a ‘neat morocco case’ and injecting it into an arm ‘all dotted and scarred with innumerable puncture marks’. Watson tells us that this has been going on ‘three times a day for many months’, and remonstrates with Holmes about his habit. https://mikejay.net/watson-the-needle/
Bedminster is a lot closer to NY than DC and since Trump is just spending all day watching TV that should give Boorstein plenty of time to come up even more exotic formulae. (I wonder what the interactions of, say, Miltown, Adderall and Astronaut Tang might be?)
And, he can use the rank and privileges of Surgeon General to use government labs to do it in. (Although I for one can't wait to see him get his commission at an age when most commissioned corps officers have been retired.)
Milton and Darvocet would be quite the combo. Throw in some reserpine for his hypertension and chlorpromazine for his agitation and he should be able to handle the methamphetamine just fine.
“Miltown,” huh... misty memories of the Golden Age of Pharmacology
Thorazine for troublesome menopausal women was also a thing ...
Really?! Ah, *thim* wuz th’ days
The White House follies make my skin crawl, my heart shudder and my funny bones ache. Watson, bring the needle!
What, all out of Dr Sigmund’s Peruvian Cocoa?
(I always thought it was called Peruvian Marching Powder.)

Loud Mouth Lime? For Chrissakes, don't tell him about the orange flavor. https://food52.com/blog/18562-maybe-these-pillsbury-drink-mix-mascots-are-best-left-in-1965
Yeah, and “Rootin’-Tootin’ Raspberry” seems... extremely problematic

Don’t forget the Aureomycin just in case!
