Excerpt from The Book of Priscriptions: With Notes on the Pharmacology and Therapeutics of the More Important Drugs and an Index of Diseases and Remedies The years that have elapsed since the last edition was reprinted have seen an enormous number of drugs brought into use. Of these, some have had an ephemeral existence, others have proved their worth. The more important of the latter are included in the new edition of The British Pharmacopoeia, and these are fully dealt with in the text. Still newer remedies which seem to be of service and of which reliable data can be found, have been incorporated, and prescriptions illustrating their employment appended. On the other hand, remedies which were either redundant or have dropped out of use have been deleted. By this means the size of the book is not materially altered. In accordance with modern nomenclature the term "mil" has been substituted for "cubic" centimetre. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
