This website contains information about medical advances throughout history and how they were supported by advertising. There are advertisements from the 19th and 20th centuries for everything from cold medications to Pfizer pharmaceutical company. It also details a timeline from the 1840s to the 1990s of medical discoveries and the regulation of advertising and drugs.
Some of the ads are fascinating - its worth a look.
