Excerpt from Poisonous Plants in Field and Garden
Mr. Blyth strongly recommends families possessing an "Antidote Cupboard" for use in cases of emergency. This cupboard may contain -
(I) The Multiple Antidote which consists of a saturated solution of sulphate of iron 100 parts, water 800, magnesia 88, animal charcoal 44 parts. It is best to have the animal charcoal and magnesia mixed together in the dry state, and kept in a well-corked bottle; when required for use, the saturated solution of sulphate of iron is mixed with eight times its bulk of water, and the mixture of charcoal and magnesia added with constant stirring. The multiple antidote may be given in wine-glassful doses, frequently repeated, in cases of poisoning by arsenic, zinc, opium, foxglove or digitalis, mercury, or strychnine. It is of no use in phosphorus poisoning, or in poisoning by the caustic alkalies or antimony.
(2) Calcined magnesia or any bland oil for use in poisoning by acids.
