Opis

Excerpt from A Contribution to South African Materia Medica: Chiefly From Plants in Use Among the Natives A Knowledge of the plants imported into the Medical Art is traceable in every country to the early inhabitants,, whose experience suggested the maladies in which the medicinal plants they had discovered could be employed with advantage,, and whose tentative efforts showed the mode of treating diseases. That applies to this country; but how a drug acts, what it can do, the amount of dose, and with what other drugs it ought to be supplemented or controlled, are things left uncertain. With the plants brought forward here as new to scientific use, much of this has yet to be ascertained by experimentation, and those who experiment are strongly advised to begin with very small doses. Large doses may do great mischief, and they always defeat the object for which they are taken. The plants named here may be classed in a threefold way into - a few important - a number fitted for minor uses - and the rest adduced to show what people resorted to, when they could have recourse to nothing else.
