Bottom line, I choose to believe in drug-induced hallucinations and not drug-induced time travel.

Good point. Magnus seems to be that type of person. Perhaps his accident was really just that and not linked to the drug.
Alison Uttley’s heroine experiences dreams/hallucinations linked to the location of the historical events in the novel. Uttley, herself, lived near these historical events and evidently had dreams similar to the sequences in
A Traveller In Time.
