Description

Medical prescription in Arabic script. For a topical remedy. Written in an unusually beautiful hand and formatting, with the ingredients arranged in a list rather than a paragraph. On verso, the instructions for how to compound it and use it. Mentions "istiʿmāl al-iṭrīfal." It should be used for three days, at the same time on each day. Needs further examination.
