Description
This section is from the book "Essentials Of Materia Medica And Therapeutics", by Alfred Baring Garrod. Also available from Amazon: The Essentials Of Materia Medica And Therapeutics.
Posological Table
The following List exhibits the doses of important remedial agents and their preparations as ordinarily prescribed for adults. When medicines are administered to young children or very aged persons some modification is required; and the annexed Table, by Gaubius, will serve somewhat as a guide for the regulation of the doses for patients of different ages:
Table
Showing the Proportions in which some of the more important Drugs of the Pharmacopoeia are contained in the Officinal Preparations.
Ages. | Proportional Quantities. | Doses. |
For an adult | suppose the dose to be One | or 60 grains. |
Under 1 year | will require only . . . 1/12 | 5 grains. |
" 2 years | " " 1/8 | 7 1/2 grains. |
" 3 " | " " 1/6 | 10 grains. |
" 4 " | " " 1/4 | 15 grains. |
" 7 " | " " 1/3 | 20 grains. |
" 14 " | " " 1/2 | 30 grains. |
" 20 " | " " 2/3 | 40 grains. |
Above 21 " | the full close .... - | 60 grains. |
" 65 " | the inverse gradation of the above. |
It should be borne in mind, that certain drugs, especially opium, must be administered with great care to children, and that mercurials can be taken for a long time by such subjects without the ordinary symptoms of mercurialization being produced. Besides age, other circumstances, such as sex, temperament, climate and custom, have great influence on the action of medicines.
