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: From half a grain to one grain of opium, with five grains of calomel and ten of the powder of jalap, may be taken for a dose, made up into three or four pills with a little common syrup. Where purgatives f\iil in procuring motions, it is not uncommon to give quicksilver, which, by its gravity, may be likely to make its way through the intestinal tube ; but I cannot recommend the 5246 INFLAMMATION, &c. remedy, for should the obstruction proceed from one portion of the gut slipping into another, as is sometimes the case, it would infallibly increase the disorder.
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, not marked promotable, critical hazard archive only. Publication makes the source extraction inspectable; it does not verify identity, completeness, efficacy or safety.
Toxic / do not self-use
Do not self-use. The record remains public for historical, botanical and hazard research.
- 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.
- Automated review flags: controlled or narcotic, toxic metal or mineral, high risk botanical.
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.
