Thomas Dover was a septuagenarian when he developed the hugely popular Dover’s Powder.

To relieve pain and procure sleep opium—either uncombined or in the form of Dover's powder—belladonna, camphor, assafoetida, valerian, etc. have been recommended by different physicians; liniments containing camphor or chloroform have also been used with advantage for the same purpose.

Dover's powder, if well borne, should be administered at night.

Dover's powder, solution of the acetate of ammonia, and other mild diaphoretics are to be selected.

The cough, even in mild cases, generally requires some slight palliative, such as syrup of ipecac., and an occasional small dose of Dover's powder.
