No. G\l
TV/TERCK’S manual is designed to meet a need which ever}'
general practitioner has often experienced. Memory is
treacherous. It is particularly so with those who have much
to do and more to think of. When the best remedy is wanted,
to meet indications in cases that are a little out of the usual
run, it is difficult, and sometimes impossible, to recall the whole
array of available remedies so as to pick out the best. Strange
to say, too, it is the most thoroughly informed man that is

likely to suffer to the greatest extent in this way; because of


the very fact that his mind is overburdened. But a mere re-

minder is all he needs, to make him at once master of the


situation and enable him to prescribe exactly what his judgment
tells him is needed for the occasion.

In MERCK’S MANUAL the physician will find a complete


Ready-Reference Book covering the entire eligible Materia
Medica. A glance over it just before or just after seeing a patient
will refresh his memory in a way that will facilitate his coming
to a decision. In this book, small as it is, he will find the
essential data found in the ponderous Dispensatories, together
with the facts of newest record.

Part I affords at a glance a descriptive survey, in one alpha-


betic series, of the entire Materia Medica to-day in general use
by British practitioners. Part II contains a summary ofTheia-
peutic Indications for the employment of remedies, arranged
according to the Pathologic Conditions to be combated. Part II [
presents a Classification of Medicaments in accordance with
their Physiologic Actions.

The publisher may be allowed to state that he has


labored long and earnestly, so to shape this little volume that it
shall prove a firm and faithful help to the practitioner in
his
daily round of duty. He now sends it forth in the confident
hope that, the more it is put to the test of actual use, the more
it will grow in the esteem of its possessor.

to b8.
I
actual use to-day by British Physicians.
(Alphabetically arranged.)

This part embraces all those Simple Medicinal Sub-


stances (that is, drugs and chemicals) which are in current

and well-established use in the medical practice of Greater


Britain or which, if too recently introduced to be as yet
in general use, are vouched for by eminent authorities in
medical science —
also all the Pharmaceutic Preparations
; ,

recognized by the British Pharmacopoeia.

(Added thereto, for the convenience of those practilionert who


prescribe them, are Medicamentous Mixtures advertised only to
the Profession, but whose composition or mode of manufacture
has not been made known with sufficient completeness or exact-
ILqcss to satisfy all members of the Profession.)

There has also been included, under the title of “Foods",


a list ofsuch mere B'ood and Dietetic Products as are fre-
(luently prescribed for infants’ diet, or for the sick or con-
valescent.

Omitted from the Materia Medica chapter are: Medica-


ments that have become obsolete, or that are too rarely
used to be of general interest; and such new remedies as
are not yet safely accredited on reliable authority; also
those galenic preparations (tinctures, extracts, pills, essen-
ces, elixirs, wines, emulsions, etc.) which are not standard-
ized according to the British Pharmacopoeia; likewise all
articles that are put up and advertised for self-medication
by the lay public.

Separate Titles in the alphabetic series are accorded,


as a rule, to the botanical drugs and other(pharmacentical
mother substances, to proximate principles (alkaloids, glu-
cosidcs, organic acids, etc.), and to chemical compounds
(salts, “synthetics", etc.); while the official galenic prepa-

iV
rations, Infusions, Extracts, Tinctures, etc., derived from
them, are mentioned under the titles of their respective
mother-substances as well as in their respective groups,
which will be found in the alphabetical order. (Thus, for
instance, Tinctura Opii ammoniata will be found both
under Opium and in the group of „Tincturae.“
Thoi do.scs stated always represent single doses, which
may be repeated several times a day.

CSmaller typt hna been employed— in order to economiee space


for those of th'jolder drugs and preparations which are so long
and well known that but little reference will need to he made to
them.)
(Those substances of the Materia Medica which can be had
of theMKRCK brand are — for the convenience of prescribera —
so designated.)

Supplement to the Materia Medica.

Part Second. — THERAPEUTIC INDICATI-


ONS for the use of Materia Medica and
other agents. (Arranged alphabetically under
the titles of the various Pathologic Conditions.)

This part summarizes in bidef form, the principal


means of treatment for each form of disease, as reported
to be in good use with practitioners at the present time
special stress has been laid on the therapeutic
agents usually employed in tropical diseases.
The statements hereon .are drawn from the standard works
of the leading modern writers on Therapeutics, and sup-
plemented —
in the case of definite chemicals of more
recent introduction — by the reports of prominent clinical
investigators.

Supplement to tlie Therapeutic indications.

Part Third.— CLASSIFICATION OF MEDICA-


MENTS according to their Physiologic
Actions. (Arranged alphabetically under the tit-
les of the Actions.)

This part recapitulates, for ready survey,


such
statements as are already given in “Part
1“, as to the
modes of action of the various medicaniciits.

PART FIRST.
THE MATERIA MEDICA,
As in Actual Use To-day by British Physicians.

Btadtr pleatt note;—


The GALKSIC PREPARATIONS of the Britijih Pharmacopoeia, when not listed un-
der their own titles, will be found under the titles of the druRS from which they are
derived.
FOOD AND DIETETIC PRODUCTS proper wUl be found under the title: “Foods**;
while Digeslanta, Hcmatinics, etc., are listed under their own titles.
SMALL TYPE is employed for the older class of drugs, which are so well known
as to require but little description.
Those articles of which the BIERCK brand is on the market, are — for convenience
in prescribing —
designated accordingly.
The DOSES given are for adults ; for children the following rule (Young’s) will
be found the most convenient. A.dd 12 to the age, and divide by the age, to get the
denominator of tlie fraction, the numerator of which is 1. Thus, for a child iwo
2 +^ 12
yearsold, =s 7, and the dose is one seventh of that for an ndult. Of power-
ful narcoticsand anthelmintics scarcely more than one-half of this proportion should
be need. Of mild cathartics, two or even ihree times the proportion may be employed.
In a general way it may bo said that appi-oximatoly the dose for a child of one
month is 1/20 that of an adult; for one of 8 months is 1/16; 0 months 1/10; 1 year
1/8; 2 years I'O; 3 years 1/6; 6 years 3/10; 8 years t/g; 10 years S'6 ; 12 years 2'S;
16 years 4'5; 20 to 45 years, adult dosage; 50 years 5 6; 60 years 4/5; 80 years 2/S.
For HYPODERMATIC INFECTIONS, the dose should be one-half of that used by
the mouth ; by reetmn, tive-fourihs of the same.

iodine which colors the ether. When not exposed to light at all
the decomposition is very slow; and with the least practicable ex-
posure, by care in using it, it is not rapid. The decomposition is
rendered still slower by the presence in each vial of about 10 drops
of a very dilute solution of soda. When deeper than a pale wine
color, it should be shaken up with 5 or 10 drops of such solution.

materia medica

Supplement i.

Embracing the principal changes


IN THE British Pharmacopoeia,
Revised Edition, 1898.

Published by E. Meeck, Daemstadt (Gekmany>


1899 .
The changes introduced by the revised
edition of the British Pharmacopoeia of 1898
having taken place at a time when the greater \

portion of the first part of my Manual , that


embracing the Materia Medica, had already
' passed into the printer’s hands, it was not pos-
sible to take due cognizance of them. The
Manual should therefore be consulted in con-
junction with the present Supplement I, in
which all those changes are specified as far
as they concern practitioners. This supple-
ment will be followed by others, if and when
this is rendered advisable by important ad- '

ditions of new remedies or by other circum-


stances. The form of the supplements will
be such that they may be gummed into the

Manual until such time that a new edition of


j

1 the latter can be issued. j
