I feel like you could still give science a head start by giving them rough ideas of how things work, like penicillin and whatnot

Even if you don’t know all the ins and puts you can give them something to go off of to develop the technology faster

If you couldn’t prove it, things probably wouldn’t go well for you.

  Even if you could prove it, it would still go badly in a lot of places in a lot of times.

“Science” ≠ Technology!

If you give them the technology without giving them stuff like empiricism and cultural acceptance of critical thinking, they’ll just worship it like any other faith, and stagnate for the next thousand years.

Inversely, you don’t even need to give them too much technology, because if you just give them stuff like evidence-based medicine, the printing press, rigorous experimentation and reproducibility, and a couple institutes dedicated to the craft, plus a couple starting points, then they’ll figure it on their own soon enough (assuming an overall stable civilization).

  Most likely, people would consider you to be another wacko shouting at passersby.
  
  Or even more likely, you drink some stanky water that your body doesn’t know how to deal with and die within the first week.
