FORMULARY

FORMULARY .

Note. — In the following formulary the decimal system has been employed, and the percentage of each ingredient can therefore be readily seen at a glance. The unit may be re- garded as a grain, a gramme, or any other weight, without changing the relative amount of the ingredients. An excep- tion to this rule will be found in the baths recommended for syphilis, in which definite amounts are given in both the me- tric and the apothecaries' systems. The formulae have been carefully selected from the writings of various well-known authorities, and some trifling changes have been made in a few cases in order to reproduce the prescriptions in a decimal form or to render them more suitable for use in childhood. The signs !^ , M. , and S. have been omitted to avoid repetition. As far as possible an attempt has been made to give due credit to the author of each formula.
