alvine

Of, from, in, or pertaining to, the belly or the intestines; as, alvine discharges; alvine concretions.

Common diarrhœa—purging, or scours—manifests itself simply by the copiousness and fluidity of the alvine evacuations.

Two drops, when made into pills with bread, usually produce alvine evacuations in half or three quarters of an hour.

Consequently, if this secretion is interrupted by disease, there will be a proportionally diminished necessity for alvine evacuations.

When you wish to accelerate or augment the alvine exoneration, take two, three, or more, according to the effect you desire to produce.
