“Primum non nocere"—in the first place, do no harm—is often cited as one of the foundation stones of sound medical care, yet its origin is uncertain. Hippocrates? There are some who will tell you so; but the phrase is not a part of the Hippocratic Oath, and the Father of Medicine wrote in any case in his native Greek. The ability to do good with the help of medicines has developed immensely within the last century, but with it has come the need to keep a watchful eye on the possibility of inflicting harm on the way.
