Vomiting Draughts.
Take of ipecacuanha, in powder, a scruple; water, an ounce; simple syrup, a drachm. Mix them.
Persons who require a stronger vomit may add to the above half a grain, or a grain, of emetic tartar.
Those who do not chuse the powder, may take ten drachms of the ipecacuanha wine; or half an ounce of the wine, and an equal quantity of the syrup of squills.
