As a medicine, bicarbonate of potassa acts as a direct and efficientantacid; pleasanter and more efficient than bicarbonate of soda. _ Itreadily neutralizes free acid in the stomach, and the excess beingabsorbed renders the blood and urine decidedly alkaline, and ishence considered alterative in its action. It is used to liberate car-bonic acid, and for making the saline preparations of potassa, isconfined to carbonate, being pure. Dose 9j to 3j. Potasses, Carbonas Purus, IT. S. The ignition of the potash forming pearlash deprives it of organicmatter, and brings it more completely into the condition of a car-bonate. The solution, filtration, and granulation of this deprivesit of some inorganic impurities, but leaves it contaminated withsilica. Charging it with a further dose of carbonic acid precipitatesthis impurity3; and, finally, calcination at a red heat will drive off Fie. 186. Fig. 187. Fie. IS.
