The Physiological Action of Drugs: An Introduction to Practical Pharmacology (Classic Reprint) - Hardcover
Excerpt from The Physiological Action of Drugs: An Introduction to Practical Pharmacology
The experiments described in this elementary work have been made as simple as possible, so that they may be performed by a medical student. For a similar reason they have been limited to those operations which can be performed upon a brainless frog. The law relating to experiments on animals renders necessary the destruction of the animal's cerebral hemispheres.
It is hoped that this small work may be of some value as a contribution to the knowledge of the physiological action of drugs. The results of the experiments are based upon numerous observations and graphic records; the drugs have been dissolved in normal tap-water saline solution, and, for the determination of the poisonous effects, have been administered by hypodermic injection under the skin of the back. The tracings are portions of continuous records, and have been checked by control experiments.
