I know we've had this discussion before... The following is a long message quoting material (from the Materia Medica, I believe) that was published in 1916...
http://escribe.com/health/thesilverlist/m1263.html The salient point is in the last paragraph: > Notice no where is there the word antibiotic. This wasn't mentioned > once in the entire book. It wasn't in their repertoire' nor in > science. The things that they knew might hinder infections and > speed healing in these cases were called antiseptics and astringents. Another message from Susan, gives a number of definitions for words that do apply to CS, but again suggests that the precise term "antibiotic" has a specific *meaning* in the scientific/medical context, and is not well-applied to CS... http://escribe.com/health/thesilverlist/m626.html I'm not saying her comments are authoritative, but suggestive. I would still like to know the definition of "antibiotic" in the legal/medical/scientific sense... Be well, Mike D.
