Book Description
Excerpt from Materia Medica; Pharmacology; Therapeutics Prescription Writing: For Students and Practitioners Therapeutics is the science of the use of remedial measures. When a physician orders a patient to bed, he employs a thera peutie measure. Also when he orders a cold bath, a cathartic, or the application of a mustard plaster; or when he applies a splint to a broken arm, or removes an inflamed appendix, or sits by the bed and calms a nervous patient. Preventive medicine goes a step further than remedial medicine, in that it designs to prevent the appearance or spread of disease. The main therapeutic and preventive measures may be grouped as follows. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Excerpt from Lectures on Materia Medica and Therapeutics: Delivered in the College of Physicians and Surgeons, of the University of the State of New York BY the Materia Medica, in its largest sense, is meant that branch of Medical Science which treats of the history, preparation, properties, and effects upon the living system, in health and disease, of all the various agents which are used for the prevention or cure of disease. It may, therefore, be considered as including two distinct departments - viz. First, What may be called strict Materia Medica, embracing simply an account of the history and properties - physical and chemical - of medicinal agents, and of their effects on the system in health. Second, Therapeutics, That which relates to the effects of these agents in their applications to the management of disease. It is in this extended sense that I propose to consider it in the following course of lectures; and I shall, therefore, besides giving you a description of the various properties of medicines, endeavor to lay before you the general principles which are to govern you in their use. There are several points of view in which medicines are generally considered in the books - viz. Their natural history - their physical, their chemical, and finally, their therapeutical properties.

Book Description
Excerpt from Materia Medica and Therapeutics: An Introduction to the Rational Treatment of Disease This book is chiefly therapeutical in its scope, and is intended to be a rational guide to the student and practitioner of medicine in the treatment of disease. At the same time the Materia Medica has not been sacrificed. On the contrary, it will be found to be set forth in detail by the adoption of a natural and concise arrangement, which presents the subject in such a form that it can be quickly appreciated and easily remembered. The author attaches importance to the plan which he has adopted in the description of the Special Therapeutics, and which consists in systematically tracing the physiological action and uses of the different drugs in their passage through the body, from their first contact with it locally until they are eliminated in the secretion.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Essentials of Materia Medica and Therapeutics The Author of the present volume has for some years devoted time and attention to a special study of the therapeutic action of drugs, and had hoped ere this to place the results of his labour before the Profession. In the progress of his task, however, he has discovered that every new fact obtained, suggested a new sub jcet for investigation and research, while the experience gained by clinical observation did not tend to diminish the difficulties which seemed to him to surround so exhaustless an inquiry. He was, moreover, unwilling to content himself with a compilation of the data collected by others, or with that apparent simplification of the subject so common in works on Therapeutics, but which too often results only from a hasty credence in statements consonant with the writer's ideas, and a neglect of others not in harmony with those preconceived conclusions. It was the intention of the Author to have appended to the present volume a more detailed account of his experience of the treatment of disease derived from clinical study, but the publica tion of the British Pharmacopoeia rendered it desirable that a text-book should be immediately in the hands of the Student and Practitioner of Medicine, and hence the second edition of the Essentials of Materia Medica and Therapeutics is now published alone. The Author still hopes, in the course of a few months, to bring before the Profession a separate volume devoted exclusively to the value of medicines in the treatment of disease, and embracing the whole subject of Therapeutics.

By a convenient arrangement the corresponding effects in health and disease of each article are presented in parallel columns, not only ren dering reference easier, but also impressing the facts more strongly upon the mind of the reader.
