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.
Automated live-review record
This formula was extracted automatically from a historical source and published directly for live editorial inspection. It may contain OCR, title, botanical-identity, ingredient, structure or safety errors. Do not use it as treatment, dosage or self-care guidance.

- Distill according to the source passage: Qualities.— This oil, (formerly called oleum Wittnebianum, from Wittnebin, who first gave an account of the process for obtaining it,) is distilled from the leaves of the plant, and is generally brought to this country in copper vessels, that hold about three pints ; and, as it is generally of a green colour, it has been supposed to acquire this tinge from the copper; but after careful investigation, we have not been able to trace the smallest portion of that metal in it.
Live editorial status
This record was published without a human-review gate by site policy. Automated flags at publication: no primary ingredient taxon link, promotion title hygiene failed, not marked promotable. Publication makes the source extraction inspectable; it does not verify identity, completeness, efficacy or safety.
Professional review advised
Professional review is advised before any practical use of this preparation.
- Unreviewed automated import: this record is public for live editorial inspection and has not passed manual identity, formula or safety review.
- Historical formula: ingredient identity, strength, contamination risk and terminology may differ from modern practice.
- Do not use this record as dosage or treatment guidance. Every ingredient, route and contraindication requires qualified editorial verification.
- The historical use wording does not establish modern clinical effectiveness.
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.
