I don't know if I'd be willing to accept that as an accurate characterization of the dosage. The uses for the drug listed in the pharmacopia indicate that it was being prescribed for it's psychoactive properties. It seems implausible that it would be prescribed for those properties in dosages at which the effects would be undetectable.
