_Take Ipecacuanha_ (S), _one scruple: sugar a little lump: water
half a Tea cup full, and make it up into a draught._
This vomit should be well worked off with chamomile tea, or even common
luke warm water; first letting the vomit operate, and then drinking
plenty of the water after every operation. When this is over, the
patient should keep his bed or hammock, and take either the _fever
powder_ (L), or the before mentioned draught, No. XXIV.
The catarrhal fever, and all the other symptoms of cold, viz. cold in
the head, cough, hoarseness, &c. generally keep one another company,
leave the patient generally at one time; and in fact, one method of
cure, namely, promoting a perspiration, serves for all; for thereby the
obstructions become removed, and nature is restored to its primitive
tranquillity again.
