Synopsis

Excerpt from Practical Materia Medica for Nurses: With an Appendix Containing Poisons and Antidotes, With Poison-Emergencies; Mineral Waters; Weights and Measures; Dose-List; And a Glossary of the Terms Used in Materia Medica and Thera-Peutics

IN preparing the following pages for publication, it has been my endeavor to make them as practical as possible, including only the source of the drugs, their action and uses, dosage, and the symptoms and treat ment of poisoning.

They constitute the notes of a series of lectures de livered as a companion, so to Speak, to Practical Points in Nursing, and have been arranged in alphabetical order for a more ready reference.

The first part of the book is devoted to the general considerations and classification of drugs.
The second part, to the subject-matter proper of the lectures.

The third part, or appendix, contains Poison-emergen cies, Poisons and their Antidotes, Emetics, Mineral Waters, Weights and Measures, Dose-list, Glossary, etc.

The doses of all drugs have been given in both the Apothecaries' and Metric Weights.
