A little brandy on cracked ice is often good. 4. Oil of cloves, one-half to one drop, helps in some cases. 5. Lime water added to milk is good in babies. 6.

One-tenth of a drop of ipecac is good for nausea and vomiting. 10. One-half of a drop of Fowler's solution every two hours is useful in nausea following a spree. So also one drop dose of nux vomica every half hour. Next: APPENDICITIS Previous: Vomiting
