Rhubarb
Rhubarb
is
a
purgative,
astringent
and
stomachic.
It
is
used
externally
in
the
form
of
powder
to
ulcers,
to
promote
a
healthy
action.
It
is
given
internally
in
diarrhoea,
dyspepsia,
and
a
debilitated
state
of
the
bowels.
Combined
with
a
mild
preparation
of
calomel,
it
forms
an
excellent
purgative
for
children.
Dose,
of
the
infusion,
from
one
to
two
ounces;
of
the
powder,
from
one
scruple
to
half
a
drachm
as
a
purgative,
and
from
six
to
ten
grains
as
a
stomachic;
of
the
tincture
and
compound
tincture,
from
one
to
four
drachms;
of
the
compound
pill,
from
ten
to
twenty
grains.
740.
Jalap
Jalap
is
a
powerful
cathartic
and
hydrogogue,
and
is
therefore
apt
to
gripe.
Dose,
of
the
powder,
from
ten
to
thirty
grains,
combined
with
a
drop
or
two
of
aromatic
oil;
of
the
compound
powder,
from
fifteen
to
forty
grains;
of
the
tincture,
from
one
to
three
drachms;
of
the
extract,
from
ten
to
twenty
grains.
The
watery
extract
is
better
than
the
alcoholic.
741.
Colocynth
Colocynth
is
a
powerful
drastic
cathartic,
and
should
never
be
given
alone,
unless
ordered
by
a
medical
man,
as
its
action
is
too
violent
for
some
constitutions.
