Note 22 — Chapter XXII · THE JUDGMENT OF ANÛBIS
Reading edition
The Sun Cholera Mixture for dysentery (a recipe of Doctor G.W. Busteed) was so named because its formula had been published by the New York Sun during the cholera excitement in New York in June, 1849. It was admitted to the first edition of the National Formulary in 1883. Its constituents were tincture of capsicum, tincture of rhubarb, spirits of camphor, essence of peppermint, and opium. (return)
