REVIEW OF SOUTHERN MEDICAL LITERATURE.<br />

tre<strong>at</strong>ing a case, allow three glasses <strong>of</strong> milk<br />

the day before; and in the afternoon give a<br />

large dose <strong>of</strong> salts, which usually acts well<br />

on account <strong>of</strong> the small amount <strong>of</strong> food in<br />

the intestines; early next morning begin<br />

with the thymol, giving from ten to twenty<br />

grain doses every h(jur till four or five doses<br />

are taken. Usually, within a short time<br />

after the last dose, the bowels begin to act<br />

and the worms appear in the stools.<br />

In case no action is produced in a short<br />

time, it is best to give another purg<strong>at</strong>ive.<br />

By this time the p<strong>at</strong>ient is weak and nause<strong>at</strong>ed,<br />

and salts may not be retained. In<br />

such cases, a bottle <strong>of</strong> cold citr<strong>at</strong>e <strong>of</strong> magnesia<br />

'.effervescent) acts just as well, is<br />

more pal<strong>at</strong>able, and better borne by the<br />

stomach. If the thymol is too irrit<strong>at</strong>ing to<br />

the stomach, give one-eighth to one-fourth<br />

grain <strong>of</strong> cocaine l^efore giving first dose.<br />

No food should be allowed the day <strong>of</strong> tre<strong>at</strong>ment<br />

till four or live hours after worms begin<br />

to pass.<br />
