Description

Two medical prescriptions, one on each page. In Arabic script. Both are headed by "lemon syrup" (sharāb laymūn) or begin with this item. The one on the right is "for the woman" (للمرة), suggesting that the same physician wrote one for a husband and one for a wife. Cf. T-S NS 223.82 + T-S NS 223.83 (PGPID 37658) for another fragment with medical prescriptions for multiple people.
