This list was compiled for the purpose of aiding the movement toward the elimination of the mass of useless or superfluous drugs now in books on materia medica. It is particularly fitted to serve as a text for teachers of materia medica and therapeutics. Many state medical examining boards are limiting their examinations on therapeutics to this list of drugs. In this book the properties--pharmacologic action, therapeutic uses and dosage, and methods of administration--are briefly but practically discussed. Cloth, flexible cover, 4-1/2 by 7-1/2 inches, 176 pages. Price, postpaid, 60 cents.
