Compound
Spirit
of
Sulphuric
Ether
Compound
Spirit
of
Sulphuric
Ether
is
a
very
useful
stimulant,
narcotic,
and
antispasmodic.
Used
internally
in
cases
of
great
exhaustion,
attended
with
irritability.
Dose,
from
half
a
drachm
to
two
drachms,
in
camphor
julep.
When
combined
with
laudanum,
it
prevents
the
nauseating
effects
of
the
opium,
and
acts
more
beneficially
as
a
narcotic.

The
Hop
The
Hop
is
a
narcotic,
tonic,
and
diuretic;
it
reduces
the
frequency
of
the
pulse,
and
does
not
affect
the
head,
like
most
anodynes.
Used
externally,
it
acts
as
an
anodyne
and
discutient,
and
is
useful
as
a
fomentation
for
painful
tumours,
rheumatic
pains
in
the
joints,
and
severe
contusions.
A
pillow
stuffed
with
hops
acts
as
a
narcotic.
When
the
powder
is
mixed
with
lard,
it
acts
as
an
anodyne
dressing
in
painful
ulcers.

the
extract,
from
five
grains
to
one
scruple;
of
the
tincture,
from
half
a
drachm
to
two
drachms;
of
the
powder,
from
three!
grains
to
one
scruple;
of
the
infusion,
half
an
ounce
to

ounce.

Opium
Opium
is
a
stimulant,
narcotic,
and
anodyne.
Used
externally
it
acts
almost
as
well
as
when
taken
into
the
stomach,
and
without
affecting
the
head
or
causing
nausea.
Applied
to
irritable
ulcers
in
the
form
of
tincture,
it
promotes
their
cure,
and
allays
pain.
Cloths
dipped
in
a
strong
solution,
and
applied
over
painful
bruises,
tumours,
or
inflamed
joints,
allay
pain.
A
small
piece
of
solid
opium
stuffed
into
a
hollow
tooth
relieves
toothache.
A
weak
solution
of
opium
forms
a
valuable
collyrium
in
ophthalmia.
Two
drops
of
the
wine
of
opium
dropped
into
the
eye
acts
as
an
excellent
stimulant
in
bloodshot
eye;
or
after
long-continued
inflammation,
it
is
useful
in
strengthening
the
eye.
Applied
as
a
liniment,
in
combination
with
ammonia
and
oil,
or
with
camphorated
spirit,
it
relieves
muscular
pain.
When
combined
with
oil
of
turpentine,
it
is
useful
as
a
liniment
in
spasmodic
colic.
