In order that Castor Oil will act as a laxative the dose ought to be sufficient. The Russian Popular Medicine recommends one milliliter Castor Oil per one kilogramm of the human weight; e. g. 60 kg --> 60 ml (= 2 oz), this taken early in the morning, not having breakfasted. In this case the first bowel movement will occur normally 2 to 4 hours after having gulped this stuff, eceptionally 1 to 6 hours later.
