Dear Sigmund Freud,
I hope this letter finds you in good spirits and health. I understand that you have inquired about the specific medication that was administered to you most recently. Given the complexity of your treatment and the importance of accuracy in medication management, it is crucial to address your concerns with the utmost care and attention.
Medication Management and Errors
In the realm of medical treatment, particularly for conditions such as yours, it is paramount to ensure that the correct medication is prescribed and administered. Medication errors can occur for a variety of reasons, including but not limited to, miscommunication, illegible handwriting, dosing errors, and confusion with similar medication names. These errors can have significant implications for patient safety and treatment outcomes.
Recent studies, such as the one referenced in the provided context (DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0267570.t002), highlight the ongoing challenges in medication management and the importance of systems to report, address, and prevent such errors. The study suggests that electronic prescribing, for instance, can be an effective measure in reducing the likelihood of medication errors. This aligns with the broader push in modern medicine to leverage technology to enhance patient care and safety.
Electronic Prescribing and Patient Concerns
Electronic prescribing (e-prescribing) systems are designed to mitigate the risk of medication errors by providing clear, legible, and accurate prescription information directly to pharmacies. These systems can also include decision support tools that alert prescribers to potential drug interactions, allergies, and other contraindications. As of the latest medical publications, there is a consensus that the adoption of e-prescribing can significantly reduce the incidence of medication errors.
It is also worth noting that patient concerns regarding medication errors are taken very seriously in the medical community. The fear of receiving the wrong medication or experiencing adverse effects can be distressing, and it is essential that healthcare providers address these concerns with empathy and reassurance. Open communication between patients and healthcare providers is key to building trust and ensuring that concerns are acknowledged and acted upon.
Your Specific Medication
As for the specific medication you received, it is critical to consult your medical records or speak directly with your healthcare provider to obtain accurate information. As your physician and friend, I would have ensured that your treatment plan was meticulously reviewed and that any medications prescribed were in alignment with the most current medical knowledge and practices.
Given the advancements in medicine and the availability of new treatments and technologies, it is conceivable that the approach to your care might differ in 2024 compared to 1938. The integration of the latest research findings into clinical practice is a continuous process, and it is one that can lead to more effective and safer treatment options for patients.
Emotional Support and Assistance
I want to assure you that your well-being is of the utmost importance, and any concerns you have regarding your medication should be addressed promptly and thoroughly. It is natural to feel apprehensive about medical treatments, and I encourage you to express any fears or questions you may have. A strong therapeutic relationship is built on trust and open dialogue, and I am here to provide you with the emotional support you need throughout your treatment journey.
Please do not hesitate to reach out for further clarification or support. Your health, both physical and psychological, is a priority, and I am committed to assisting you in any way I can.
With warm regards and in the spirit of professional collaboration,

Dear Sigmund,
In the final stages of your life, you were administered Orthoform for pain relief, which is a local anesthetic related to cocaine. It was applied directly to the affected area in your mouth to alleviate the severe discomfort caused by the progression of your oral cancer. As your condition deteriorated and the pain became unbearable, your trusted physician, Dr. Max Schur, honored your earlier request for euthanasia. He administered morphine, a potent opioid analgesic, to ease your suffering. You received a dose of 200 mg of morphine, followed by an additional 200 mg after 12 hours, which led to a peaceful coma and ultimately your passing in the early hours of September 23, 1939.
It is important to note that the management of pain and end-of-life care has evolved significantly since your time. Today, a multidisciplinary approach is often employed, involving palliative care specialists, pain management experts, and psychological support to ensure the highest quality of life for patients with terminal conditions. Newer analgesic formulations and delivery methods, such as transdermal patches, have been developed to provide more consistent pain control with fewer side effects.
Moreover, the ethical considerations and legal frameworks surrounding euthanasia have also undergone considerable discussion and change in various parts of the world. In contemporary practice, the decision for such interventions is made with thorough consideration of the patient’s wishes, the legal statutes, and the ethical guidelines set forth by medical governing bodies.
Should you have any further inquiries or require additional information regarding your medical care or alternative treatments, please do not hesitate to reach out.
Yours sincerely,
Hans Pichler (1877 – 1949)
