Dalby's Carminative was a medicinal product formula originally made by James Dalby of London, England, in the late 1770s. The formula claimed to aid “infants afflicted with wind, watery gripes, fluxes and other disorders of the stomach and bowels”. Ingredients included opium. The product was being sold in the United States by at least 1804. As listed in The Lancet, a recipe consists of; Tincture of opium - four drachms and a half Tincture of assafœtida - two drachms and a half Oil of carraways - three scruples Oil of peppermint - six scruples Tincture of castor - six drachms and a half Rectified spirits of wine - six drachms Put two drachms into each bottle, with magnesia - one drachm, and fill up with simple syrup and a little rectified wine. ==References== *(Dalby's Carminative and Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup, both pontiled ) at Antique Medicine Bottles Dr Cannon's Medicine Chest * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dalby's Carminative」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
