Treasures from the National Formulary of 1906
Paul Bergner 2023
90 minutes 1.5 CEU credits
The NF was the official listing of formulas for allopathic physicians and pharmacists at the turn of the 20th century. The NF of 1906 contains the most herbal formulas of all the various editions of the NF, and is available free online. The formulary demonstrates not only clinical pearl type specific formulas for various systems and conditions, but also demonstrates methods of formulation at a high level of professional practice. Most herbalists and doctors today do not realize that the allopaths at the turn of the 20th century had extensive, complex, and sophisticated herbal formulas at hand, generally more complex and sophisticated than what we have for herbalists today.
