My Preparations
Are prepared in from the vegetable substance
named, and are the most active that can be made
Decoctions are exceedingly troublesome, and it is
necessary to prepare them every day, and the syr-
ups are still more Objectionable they are weaker
than the deeoctions; for fluids saturated with sugars
are susceptible of holding in solution much less ex
tracve matter than water alone, and the syrups are
otherwise Objectionable for the patient is frequently
nauseated and the stomach surteited by the large
proportion ofsugar taken with each dose-which is
ofno use whatever-except to keep the decoction
from spelling.
Here the advantages and superiority of the Fluid
Extracts are strikingly manifest.
The finest test of their superiority will be COM
