Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Digest of Comments on the Pharmacopoeia of the United States of America (Eighth Decennial Revision) And on the National Formulary (Third Edition) For the Calendar Year Ending December 31, 1911
The limiting of questions in materia medica, by State boards of medical and other examiners to such a recognized list of remedies, and the concerted efforts of pharmacists to have such remedies of pharmacopoeial quality, would go far toward inducing medical men to restrict their use 'of drugs to remedies of supposedly established value. This would lead to the further restriction of the recognized drugs, by the elimination of such as may be found to be of indifferent or of secondary value, and would lessen, if not entirely suppress, the present unnecessary duplication of remedies having practically the same properties and action.
