    I wonder what they mean by "took too much of the universal medicine"? Every time I look it up, I keep getting information on a cult.

      Not sure. I ended up with the same results.
      Charcoal and paracetamol were mentioned.
      But, paracetamol is too recent to be the answer🤔
      I'm curious to know if anyone else has had any luck and can tell us 🤷‍♀️🤞

      @@GingerSnapsGirlie the universal medicine was an alchemic compound that would have prolonged your life and made you heal from any disease. The liquor was distilled by Madame d'Ufré herself and it was probably containing quite a bit of mercury. She did not die of poisoing, the fact was made up by Casanova, her kids found out she was circumvented and forbade her to contact him.
