Memory is treacherous. It is -particularly so with those who have much to do and more to think of. -When the best remedy is wanted, to meet indications in cases that are a -little out of the usual run, it is difficult, and sometimes impossible, -to recall the whole array of available remedies so as to pick out the -best. Strange to say, too, it is the most thoroughly informed man that -is likely to suffer to the greatest extent in this way; because of the -very fact that his mind is overburdened. But a mere reminder is all he -needs, to make him at once master of the situation and enable him to -prescribe exactly what his judgment tells him is needed for the -occasion. - -In MERCK'S MANUAL the physician will find a complete Ready-Reference -Book covering the entire eligible Materia Medica. A glance over it just -before or just after seeing a patient will refresh his memory in a way -that will facilitate his coming to a decision. In this book, small as -it is, he will find the essential data found in the ponderous -Dispensatories, together with the facts of newest record, which can -appear only in future editions of those works. - -Part I affords at a glance a descriptive survey, in one alphabetic -series, of the entire Materia Medica to-day in general use by the -American profession. Part II contains a summary of Therapeutic -Indications for the employment of remedies, arranged according to -the Pathologic Conditions to be combated. Part III presents a -Classification of Medicaments in accordance with their Physiologic -Actions. - - -The publishers may be allowed to state that they have labored long and -earnestly, so to shape this little volume that it shall prove a firm -and faithful help to the practitioner in his daily round of duty. They -now send it forth in the confident hope that, the more it is put to the -test of actual use, the more it will grow in the esteem of its -possessor. - - - - -CONTENTS. - - -~Pages 9 to 82.~ - -~Part First.--THE MATERIA MEDICA, as in actual use to-day by American -Physicians.~ (Alphabetically arranged.) - -THIS PART EMBRACES all those Simple Medicinal Substances (that -is, drugs and chemicals) which are in current and well-established use -in the medical practice of this country; or which, if too recently -introduced to be as yet in general use, are vouched for by eminent -authorities in medical science;--also, the medicinally employed -Pharmaceutic Preparations recognized by the United States -Pharmacopoeia. - - (Added thereto, for the convenience of those practitioners who - prescribe them, are Medicamentous Mixtures advertised only to the - Profession, but whose composition or mode of manufacture has not - been made known with sufficient completeness or exactness to - satisfy all members of the Profession. In the selection the - publishers have been guided solely by the recognition accorded the - various preparations by the Profession, according to the best - information obtained.) - -There has also been included, under the title of "Foods and Dietetic -Preparations," a list of such preparations as are frequently prescribed -for infants' diet, or for the sick or convalescent. - -OMITTED from the Materia Medica chapter are: Medicaments that -have become obsolete, or that are too rarely used to be of general -interest; and such new remedies as are not yet safely accredited on -reliable authority; also those galenic preparations (syrups, extracts, -pills, essences, elixirs, wines, emulsions, etc.) which are not -standardized according to the U.S. Pharmacopoeia; likewise all -articles that are put up and advertised for self-medication by the -lay public. - -SEPARATE TITLES in the alphabetic series are accorded, as a rule, -to the botanical drugs and other pharmaceutical mother-substances, -to proximate principles (alkaloids, glucosides, organic acids, etc.), -and to chemical compounds (salts, "synthetics," etc.); while the -official galenic preparations, solutions and dilutions, derived -from them, are mostly mentioned under the titles of their respective -mother-substances. (Thus, for instance, "Dover's Powder" will be -found under "Opium," while "Morphine" is described under its own -title.) - - (_Smaller type_ has been employed--in order to economize - space--for botanic drugs, gums, and some others of the older drugs - and preparations which are so long and well known that but little - reference will need be made to them.) - - (Those substances of the Materia Medica which can be had of the - MERCK brand are--for the convenience of prescribers--so - designated). - - * * * * * - -~Pages 83 to 184.~ - -~Part Second.--THERAPEUTIC INDICATIONS for the use of the Materia -Medica and other agents.~ (Arranged alphabetically under the titles -of the various Pathologic Conditions.) - -THIS PART SUMMARIZES in brief form, the principal means of -treatment for each form of disease, as reported to be in good use with -practitioners at the present time. The statements hereon are drawn from -the standard works of the leading modern writers on Therapeutics, and -supplemented--in the case of definite chemicals of more recent -introduction--by the reports of reputable clinical investigators. - - * * * * * - -~Pages 185 to 192.~ - -~Part Third.--CLASSIFICATION OF MEDICAMENTS according to their -Physiologic Actions.~ (Arranged alphabetically under the titles of -the Actions.) - -THIS PART RECAPITULATES, for ready survey, such statements as -are already given in "PART I," as to the modes of action of -the various medicaments. - - - - -INDEX. - - - THE MATERIA MEDICA, as in actual use to-day by American - Physicians.
