Warm aromatic and gently stimulating Medicines, such as have, been already mention'd, as the most effectual to suppress the Vomiting, and check the Looseness attending this Disease, have likewise been found useful in removing the present Complaint: And tho' the Degree of Heat, and Quickness of the Pulse, would be enough to dissuade a Person who has not seen the Disease, from giving them in so liberal a manner as Necessity requires; yet we are not to be governed so much by these Symptoms, as by the Faintness, Depression of the Pulse, and Increase of Putrescency in the _Fauces_. One Drachm of the _Confectio Raleighana_ has been given to a Youth not quite 15 Years of Age, every four Hours, which was soon follow'd by a sensible Amendment, and the Decrease of the Patient's Restlessness, Faintness, and Heat. Some of the _Italian_ Physicians forbad the Use of Wine in the Cure of this Disease, and the Warmth of that Climate might perhaps make this Caution necessary; but as it is a generous Cordial, and at the same time antiseptic, it seems to be in no respect improper here; and, besides in Whey, I have allow'd it to be given, in small Quantities, mixed with Mint, Baum, or Sage-Tea, Barley-Water, Gruel, Panada, Sago, and suchlike; and alone, where the Faintness has been excessive; the Age, the former Way of Life, and the Symptoms, affording the necessary Rules as to Quantity and Kind. Chicken-Water, or thin Broth, may also be allow'd; which is frequently very acceptable to the Patient. And I don't remember to have observed so general and early an Inclination after solid Food, in any acute Disease, as in this: For at a time when one would imagine, both from the Condition of the _Fauces_, and the Degree of Heat, that Liquids would be the most acceptable, it is not uncommon to find Children, who have this Disease, extremely desirous of Chicken, and chearfully complying with Directions, in hopes of being gratified in this respect. Blisters are likewise of Use to relieve the Faintness. At first I was in Doubt, lest the Flies, by their Acrimony, should increase the putrescent Disposition, and consequently aggravate the Disorder they were intended to remove: but no such Effect having appeared from their Use, I have order'd them to be applied, and I think with Advantage, both to the usual Parts, and to the Neck on each Side from below the Ear almost to the Clavicle, as Occasion required. The Ulcers in the Throat demand our early and constant Attention, as a considerable Loss of Substance cannot here be suffer'd without immediate Danger to Life itself, or the most pernicious Consequences to the future Action of the Parts, if the Patient survives.
