This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1886 Excerpt: ...The oil is somotimes given in flexible capsules. Cod-Liver Oil has engaged much attention amongst Pharmaceutists. The Yearbooks of Pharmacy are full of suggestions how to render it palatable; one author finishes up with a triumph, that the particles of Oil struggle in vain for re-union. The following formula makes a good Emulsion: --Powder of Tragacanth 27 grs. Rubbed into a paste by first adding Syrup J oz. And then Water H oz. Rub these into a good mucilage, and add by a thin stream Cod-Liver Oil 2J oz. These being well incorporated, add gradually Distilled Water 2J oz. And lastly Essence of Lemon 12 minims. Essential Oil of Almonds 1 minim. Previously dissolved in J oz. of Rectified Spirit. The excellency of the Emulsion is in proportion to the diligence of the operator in using his pestle and mortar. Pancreatized Cod-Liver Oil is prescribed under the impression that it is more easily digested than Cod-Liver Oil alone. MOSCHUS. MUSK. The inspissated and dried secretion from the preputial follicles of Moschus motchiferus, a native of the mountainous regions of Central Asia; imported from China and India. In grains or lumps concreted together, soft and unctuous to the touch, of a reddish-brown colour, having a strong and peculiar odour; contained in an oval sac or membrane about two inches in diameter. It should be free from earthy impurities. (In all the Pharmacopoeias except Austr.; Fr. Muse.) Medicinal Properties.
