COMPOUND TINCTURE OF SENNA.

Take of senna leaves, 2 oz.

jalap root, 1 oz.

coriander seeds, ½ oz.

proof spirit, 2½ pints.

Digest for seven days, and to the strained liquor add 4 oz.

of sugar-candy.

This tincture is an useful _carminative_ and _cathartic_,

especially to those who have accustomed themselves to the

use of spirituous liquors; it often relieves _flatulent

complaints_ and _colics_, where the common cordials have

little effect: the dose is from 1 to 2 ounces.
