    TO THE ADDITION IN 1890 BRITISH PHARMACOPOEIA OP 1885. A complete alphabetical list of them is given at p. li.

Laxatives, Cholagogues, and Rectal Sedatives.

Trochisci Sulphuris. Pulvis Sod® Tartaratee Effervescens. Sodii Phosphas Effervescens. Sodii Sulphas Effervescens. Magnesii Sulphas Effervescens. Mistura Olei Ricini.
