This prescription was dispensed in several stores and different 

 methods were used. Some of them from the appearance of the 

 capsules formed a dry mixture of all the ingredients and dropped 

 the oil of peppermint in afterwards. The finished products were 

 not of elegant appearance. 



My method was to emulsify the oil and menthol with a little acacia 



and then add all other ingredients using also extract gtycerrhyza 

 which formed a nice mass and was dispensed in capsules in an equal 

 division of doses.

Dissolve the phenyl, salicylate in the santal oil hy application 

 of heat, then rub up the methylene blue with a little sugar of milk 

 and divide them first in thirty capsules then with a dropper put 

 in each capsule 0.4 santal oil. Seal same and put them in a larger 

 capsule. 



Another method was used by another pharmacist. He mixed the 

 phenyl, salicylate with the methylene l)lue and then rubbed same 

 together with santal oil and then divided into the ca[)sulcs. This 

 was not the proper method because there v/as not an ecpial divi- 

 sion of doses.
