ASTRINGENTS 
Appear to produce contraction on all living animal tissues with which they 
come in contact, whether in the interior or on the exterior of the body ; 
and whether immediately applied or by absorption into the circulation. 
But great doubt exists as to the exact mode in which they act ; and, as in 
many other cases, we are obliged to content ourselves with their effects, 
and to prescribe them empirically. They are divided into astringents 
administered by the mouth, and those applied locally to external ulcerated 
or wounded surfaces.
