Author | unknown |
Summary | This page did not contain recipes for plasters as did all of the preceding texts. Together with I verso, J recto, J verso, and L verso, it contains recipes for katapotis (pills) or trochiskoi (troches) to be taken with liquids as anodynes or antidotes for various physiological ills. The content of this page is difficult to determine with certainty due to its fragmentary state, but the sufferings involved appear to be catarrh (cf. note l.2) and liver problems (cf. note l. 4). |
