SECTION 99.

MYRRH.

Officinal Dose

Adult, 1/2 to 1 drachm of the tincture - Gargle and mouth wash 1/2 drachm in 1 ounce of water. Child, see Section 56, B.

Sore mouth - Diseased gums. Into a 4 ounce bottle, put 3 drachms of the tincture of myrrh, and fill the bottle with water, gargle the mouth therewith 5 times a day, holding it in the mouth a good while each time, also swallow a little. This treatment has never failed me yet in a single instance, even in cases of years' standing. The same for ulcerated sore throat.
