Curious if anyone had any information on this bottle. I have found that the Stomach Bitters bottle is very common but I haven't been able to find any info on this bottle as it says STOMACHIC not stomach. Thanks for and info.

"In moderate doses, the plant and its essential oil are stomachic and cordial, being anti-flatulent and serving to allay spasms." - A Modern Herbal, Mrs. M. Grieve
