Cache-Control: public, max-age=1024000 Pharmacopoeia Extemporanea: A Pacific Mixture

A Pacific Mixture.

Take Liquid Laudanum tartarised 2 drams; Oil of Nutmeg and Cinnamon each 4 drops, mix.

It has the common Virtues of Laudanum, but in a more especial manner, respects Vomiting and Looseness; besides which, its a good blind for Laudanum, to hide it from the knowledge of Patients and By-standers; which Trick is sometimes exceeding necessary, when they are curiously impertinent and medling, or have taken up a foolish aversion to Opium.

The Dose is 15, 20 or 25 drops.
