[MANUSCRIT] DUMOULIN, Cours de Thérapeutique, [v. 1869]

Course on Therapeutic Pharmacology given by Nicolas Dumoulin during the years 1868-1869 at the University of Ghent. Nicolas Du Moulin (1827-1890) was a Belgian physician. In 1857, he was appointed to lecture in pharmacology and toxicology at the University of Ghent (Faculty of Medicine). In 1870, he exchanged his pharmacology courses for internal medicine courses. The writer, Cyrille Van Cauwenberghe, left his signature at the head of the book. The course details the different formulations of medications and their therapeutic uses. Noteworthy is a long chapter on rye ergot, used as an abortive substance.
