Excerpt from A Text-Book of Pharmacology and Some Allied Sciences (Therapeutics, Materia Medica, Pharmacy, Prescription-Writing, Toxicology, Etc.): Together With Outlines for Laboratory Work, Solubility and Dose Tables, Etc A complete bibliography is neither practical nor desirable in a work of this character; a guide to the literature is all that can be furnished. For this reason, the emphasis has been laid on the more recent papers, which give citations of the older work. The latter has only been quoted directly, in addition to the later work, when it is of fundamental importance.

These syrups, which have been imitated in many proprietary preparations, are useful tonics, furnishing an easily oasidizable series of salts which may be readily converted into phosphates in the body. They do not represent the activity of phosphorus compounds. Like the phosphates, they may be used in anaemia, rickets, mollities ossium, neurasthenia, debilitated conditions generally, and tuberculosis, in the last of which the claim of curative action made for them is not now believed. Sarsaparilla is the root of Smilax mficinalis, Swnilax_rnedica, Smilax papyracea, and of other undetermined species of Smilax (nat. ord. Liliaceae).
