This small book on Bazaar Medicines is written with the hope that it may be useful to medical men working in Indian districts, as those in medical charge of Branch District Dispensaries, Mission Dispensaries and those in private practice far away from chemist shops. It is of a very simple and practical nature and puts forward a number of definite prescriptions which can be made up from bazaar medicines. The book is divided into four chapters. In the first chapter, The author first lists the most useful bazzar medicines according to their actions. These medicines are divided as per their caption under their therapeutic conditions, such as: Alternatives, Anthelmics, Antiscorbutics, and Antispasmodics. Chapter II gives an alphabetical list of the source, action and method of use of the common bazzar medicines. The list has over 200 individual herbs, barks, seeds, oils, vegetables and fruits listed. It starts with Ajowan and end with Vinegar. Chapter III gives a malady-wise prescription of over 200 maladies. Chapter IV has a list of handy medicines that should always around in the face of an emergency. It is hoped this little book, by being very brief and putting up definite prescriptions of bazaar drugs, may be of help to practitioners. It is interleaved with blank pages, so that practitioners can add useful prescriptions of their own to those already given.
