Excerpt from A Text-Book of Practical Therapeutics: With Especial Reference to the Application of Remedial Measures to Disease and Their Employment Upon Rational Basis

Throughout this book, in every part where drugs or diseases are considered, the writer has arranged the titles in alphabetical order, according to the name commonly employed. This has been done because it is desired to afford the reader a ready reference book to which he may turn at short notice for desired information, for at present the state of pharmacology is so unsettled that a true classifi cation is impossible. Thus, morphine may be classed by one writer as a nervous sedative, by another as a sleep-producer, by a third as a bitter substance, and by a fourth as a respiratory depressant. Bromide of potassium may, with equal propriety, be called a spinal sedative or a cerebral sedative, or caffeine be classed as a cerebral stimulant, a circulatory stimulant, or a diuretic.
