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.

- Galls in Mucilage: from half to a whole gi'ain ; as much as 20 grains three times a day has been given in chylous urine
Method as extracted
- Macerate according to the source passage: The Tincture of Galls in Mucilage, is sometimes given with good effect in cases of diarrhoea ; the dose of this preparation is from 1 to 2 di-achmrt. Gargle,s, Lotions, &c., are made of the Infusion, or Decoction, the proportions being about 2 drachms of the Powdered Galls to a pint of water ; a drachm of this pow'der with a scruple of Sulphate of Copper, and 1 ounce of Lard, makes a good ointment for ring- worms. OalUe?ct\^ TawTirc acids, already spoken of under the head of Acids, are both obtained from^ galls which owe their astringent pro- perties to them ; they are a good deal em- ployed to correct internal haemorrhages and other discharges ; the dose of either is from 2 to 12 grains as an astringent ; as a general tonic and peptic, from 2 to 3 grains ; ricketv children may take from half to a whole gi'ain ; as much as 20 grains three times a day has been given in chylous urine.
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.
External use only
This boundary permits external context only. Do not convert it into an internal 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.
- Automated review flags: pediatric or infant use.
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.
