Parsing inflected forms may not always work as expected. If the following does not give the correct word, try Latin Words or Perseus.

  1. I. good or useful for every thing: medicamenta, Plin. 36, 20, 38, § 146; 23, 7, 71, § 136.
  2. II. Transf., ironically: cum omnes ejus comites iste sibi suo illo panchresto medicamento amicos reddidisset, by his sovereign remedy, i. e. money, Cic. Verr. 2, 3, 65, § 152.
