Pilulae Peruvianae.

Take Magistery of the best Peruvian Gum, our Ex∣tractum Panchymagogon, of each six drams; acid Tar∣tar a dram and a half, rectified Spirit of Vitriol a scruple. Mix them, and make a mass; from which afterward with Oyl of Chamomil make Pills so big, that a scruple may make five.

Virtue, Use, and Dose. It is used to evacuate thick and serous humors in ill habits of body, Dropsie, pains of the Joynts, Scabs or Scald, Jaundice, ob∣structions of the Liver and Spleen; and also in Quo∣tidian and Tertian Feavers: in all which diseases we happily use it as an experienced Medicine. The dose is from a scruple to half a dram and two scruples, especially in strong bodies.
