Re-add removed historical usage

The historical usage of methylene blue removed in 1249340040 should be re-added to the article. The information is proportionate in relation to the other information in the section. The source used for the information is a reliable source that is used in the article and the information is correctly representative of the source.

WP:MEDRS guidelines do not apply because the aforementioned information is historical information and not medical information. See WP:NOTBMI

If no one contests this I will be adding H44dyss9900 (talk) 19:48, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

:You'd need to rephrase it then to remove e.g. "the drug's antidepressant and other psychotropic effects". What precise change are you proposing? Bon courage (talk) 19:53, 4 October 2024 (UTC)

Pseudoscientific “therapy”

The increasing promotion of methylene blue on the Internet and social media as a pseudoscientific “cure-all” is a growing issue that might be worth including.

Methylene blue - when used for one specific evidence -based use in medical toxicology - remains a prescription drug and not something lawful or safe to sell online for human consumption. 180.150.36.5 (talk) 15:22, 15 February 2025 (UTC)

:Yeah, just like they said steroids show no evidence of increasing muscle mass or athletic performance, in the early 90s.

:but you don’t remember that, right? Clown. 🤡 you are a fake skeptic. 142.114.97.13 (talk) 16:18, 19 February 2025 (UTC)

:Good reference. Thanks. DolyaIskrina (talk) 16:51, 19 February 2025 (UTC)

:IP address user, opinion disregarded. In addition, "Skeptical Inquirer" is not a real or reputablepp source. Xenosystem (talk) 21:32, 4 March 2025 (UTC)

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11127079/ The entire article is well worth the read. 140 years of well known safety and a prophylactic for Covid-19. Anti malarial like hydroxychloroquine. Can't have effective treatments if you are going to have an emergency. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7534595/ 2601:588:C501:32C0:3D97:6348:68EB:E480 (talk) 22:46, 20 May 2025 (UTC)David

Not to be confused section

Given the visual, phonetic, and to an extent therapeutic similarities, seems like Prussian Blue should be added to the preface note. Any dissent? Chris Rodgers (talk)
