In addition to the general title page, there is an almost identical title page for "Pseudodoxia Epidemica" which follows the general title page. It lacks "Together with the Religio medici" and has imprint in larger type. Keynes says it was often discarded by binders who thought it was a duplicate general title page.

"Religio medici. The seventh edition, corrected and amended. With annotations upon all the obscure passages therein. Also observations by Sir Kenelm Digby" (Wing B5176) has separate dated title page, pagination, and register, with "London, printed for Andrew Crook, 1672" in imprint. According to Keynes this edition of "Religio medici" was never published separately. "Annotations upon Religio medici" by Thomas Keck and "Observations upon Religio Medici. Occasionally written by Sr. Kenelm Digby, Knight. The fifth edition, corrected and enlarged" by Sir Kenelm Digby (a reprinting of Wing D1441) have separate dated title pages (the former enclosed in a plain rule-border and with ornament) on leaves K2r and Q3r respectively within the continuous pagination and register of "Religio medici."
