Exact source claims and related context are never blended together.
This hierarchy shows why a use appears beside the preparation. The strongest relationship comes first; contextual links remain explicitly labeled.
The preparation remains searchable as an archival method record without an invented indication.

Method as extracted
- Mix according to the source passage: GeofFroy seems particularly fond of this f medicine, and informs us, that he has frequently given from two tto four grains, without its proving at all emetic ; that from four f to eight grains both vomit and purge without violence ; that its c operation is soon over; and that, if given in a liquid form, sand sufficiently diluted, it does not need any corrector; that in t the form of a bolus or pill, it is most apt to prove emetic, but wery rarely has this effect if joined along with calomel.
Live editorial status
This record was published without a human-review gate by site policy. Automated flags at publication: no primary ingredient taxon link, title ingredient mismatch, quality score below 70, not marked promotable, critical hazard archive only. Publication makes the source extraction inspectable; it does not verify identity, completeness, efficacy or safety.

Primary wording. Visible interpretation. No borrowed certainty.
The public record separates the historical passage, structured preparation data, use relationship and modern safety boundary. Same-plant context is presented as context, never as proof that this preparation was intended for that use.
