hemispheres which are connected with one another by means of a cylindrical
portion forming a sort of girdle surrounding the pill or granule.
The breadth of the said girdle, that is to say the height of the cylindrical
portion may if desired be larger or smaller in proportion to the diameter of the
hemispheres.
The material of which the said pills or granules are formed will be any drug
or chemical which is intended to be used in form of pills or granules.
