The Dispensatory of the USA, 20th Edition (1918)


The ultimate authority in pharmacy in it's era, the 20th edition, edited by Remington and Wood, is 2000 large pages filled with small
type. Though the 19th edition was less judgemental regarding unofficial medicinal plants, the 20th edition is firmer in its science and
botany. Although already showing signs of belittling many plant medicines (Remington and Wood were the ultimate mainstream
pharmaceutical editors), pharmacists nonetheless still had to prepare medicines for the thousands of Eclectic, Homeopathic and
"irregular" licensed M.D.s that practiced, so all plants are dealt with in often painful detail. I am abridging it to include only botanicals
and their preparations. It will take a couple of months to finish, so I am breaking it up into aphabetical files...this thing is huge.
