The De purgantium medicamentorum facultate is a short pharmacological polemic work, written by Galen against the Asclepiades' and Erasitratus' thought about a supposed attractive power of evacuating pharmaka. The work is an important contribution to the defence of Hippocratic humoralism. The article deals with a Latin translation of the Galenic text from Greek, earlier dating than Niccolò da Reggio's ones, examining the autenticity and dating, the Greek and Latin translation, the Greek texts and its medioeval tradition.
《论泻药的功效》是一部简短的药理学论战著作，由盖伦所著，反对阿斯克勒庇阿德斯和埃拉西斯特拉图斯关于泻药具有所谓吸引力的观点。这部著作对捍卫希波克拉底体液学说做出了重要贡献。本文探讨了一份比尼科洛·达·雷焦的译本更早的希腊文盖伦文本的拉丁文译本，研究了其真实性与年代、希腊文和拉丁文译本、希腊文本及其中世纪传承。
