What is this?

Prescription Pondus Ignotum Testatum belongs to the Institute Pharmacy's catalog of non-pharmacological interventions. The dosage is fictional. The intervention it describes is not. Patients who follow it tend to observe the predicted side effects.

The pharmacy's plain-language rendering is The Unknown Maximum, tested. The Latin is for the slip; the English reading is for filling it at home.
