The counterirritant may be turpentine, one dram to the ounce of sweet oil, or almond oil or camphorated oil or soap liniment. Oil of amber is excellent, or croton oil diluted. This should be rubbed in with the hand thoroughly, in a warm corner of the room, and followed by a special skin protection (as a layer of cotton-wool). It is sometimes well to accompany this with a hot foot-bath, which is always a wholesome febrifuge and derivative. As both an expectorant and a diaphoretic, hot drinks serve a useful turn when they can be administered, in which may be put a few drops of spirits (whisky) or sweet spirits of niter, or both. An emetic is exceedingly efficacious at the start, especially ipecac or hot water and salt (apomorphin is too depressing for children). A moistening of the air, as under a croup tent, is another valuable and prompt remedy often needed. Expectorants are useful solely for the purpose of stimulating bronchial secretion when scanty, and when the rales are few and dry and the cough frequent and harassing. Once secretion is thoroughly established, their function ends. The chlorid of ammonium is of some use in keeping up this action, especially if combined with a grain or two of potassium iodid, and may be continued with some advantage to control an accompanying intestinal catarrh. The coal-tar antipyretics are also useful expectorants, antipyrin coming first, then phenacetin and the others, and are best accompanied by some alcoholic preparation, as wine of pepsin, elixir calisaya, port or sherry wine; of course, in very small doses. It is wise not to try to check the cough by narcotics, as it is feared this procedure may precipitate pneumonia. For nervous symptoms opium used cautiously for a day may serve a good turn, Books, , Manual-of-the-Diseases-of-Children~~John-Madison-Taylor, , , , , , , , , , General Books LLC<
