This number of Parvules, taken at any time, will be found to exert an easy, prompt, and ample Cathartic effect, unattended with nausea, and in all respects furnishing the most aperient and cathartic preparation in use. For habitual constipation, they replace when taken in single parvules, the various medicated waters, avoiding the quantity required by the latter as a dose, which rills the stomach and deranges the digestive organs.

Dr. Ringer, in his treatise, lays great stress upon the efficacy of minimum doses of corrosive sublimate in the treatment of Diarrhoea, whether the stools contain blood or not.
