Herbs that treat and relieve the surface are spicy-tasting diaphoretics and stimulants which induce perspiration. ❋ JOHN LUST (2003)
Laxatives, diuretics, and diaphoretics should be administered to aid in the elimination of the poison. ❋ Various (N/A)
Experience brought much of the wisdom we call empirical, and the records, extending for thousands of years, show that the Egyptians employed emetics, purgatives, enemata, diuretics, diaphoretics and even bleeding. ❋ Unknown (1921)
Hence the office of the physician was to reduce this accumulation by some means such as blood-letting, purging, blisters, diaphoretics, etc. ❋ Ellwood Patterson Cubberley (1904)
With our laxatives, cathartics, diuretics, diaphoretics and tonics, we are doing the same thing. ❋ Henry Lindlahr (1893)
The sluggish organs of elimination are prodded by poisonous cathartics, laxatives, diaphoretics, cholagogues and tonics, all of which, after temporary stimulation, leave the organs in a more weakened and the system in a more poisoned condition. ❋ Henry Lindlahr (1893)
Laxatives, diaphoretics, and diuretics must be used to stimulate the emunctories so that they may carry off the large amount of the products of decomposition which result from the stagnated effusions of anasarca. ❋ Charles B. Michener (1877)
We therefore use diaphoretics to stimulate the sweat and excretions from the skin; diuretics to favor the elimination of matter by the kidneys; cholagogues and laxatives to increase the action of the liver and intestines, and to drain from these important organs all the waste material which is aiding to choke up and congest their rich plexuses of blood vessels. ❋ Charles B. Michener (1877)
If the fever is of the congestive variety and the constitution is feeble, the reaction imperfect, a small, weak pulse, a tendency to fainting, a pale countenance, and great pain in the head, apply heat and administer diaphoretics, and procure the services of a good physician. ❋ Ray Vaughn Pierce (1877)
It is best to use daily an alkaline bath, and, as a drink, the tea of pleurisy-root, catnip, or other diaphoretics, to which may be added from one-half to one teaspoonful of the Extract of Smart-weed. ❋ Ray Vaughn Pierce (1877)
Jaborandi, described under the head of diaphoretics, often speedily arrests this disease. ❋ Ray Vaughn Pierce (1877)
By this method the patient experiences none of the unpleasant effects which generally follow the employment of diaphoretics. ❋ Ray Vaughn Pierce (1877)
What nostrums are your medical sudorifics and diaphoretics! ❋ Unknown (1850)
Where the the above articles cannot be conveniently obtained, the reader has but to turn to the class of diaphoretics in Materia Medica, where he will find a variety of articles of this class described at length, any of which may be prepared and used as the above in all cases where the above would be of service. ❋ Richard Foreman (1849)
I neglected to state in the proper place, that after the bleeding and evacuation of the contents of the bowels, every means should be used to produce sweating, such as the free use of diaphoretic teas or powders; for this purpose a tea of seneca snake-root and black snake-root is preferable, but where neither of these can be had, other diaphoretics will answer. ❋ Richard Foreman (1849)
Its diaphoretic property renders it valuable in colds, coughs, and in fact all cases where diaphoretics are needed. ❋ Richard Foreman (1849)
It is one of the best articles in the world for child-bed fevers, when the stomach and bowels are prepared for diaphoretics or sweating medicines. ❋ Richard Foreman (1849)
I gave, now, only gentle diaphoretics, and let the case progress, watching it with the closest attention. ❋ Unknown (1847)
The skin of the dog, from the feebleness of its perspiratory functions, is little sensible to the influence of diaphoretics: therefore we trust so much to external applications for the cure of diseases of the skin of that animal. ❋ William Youatt (1811)
