Dexippus of Cos ({{lang-grc-gre|Δέξιππος ὁ Κῷος}}; 4th century BC), also called Dioxippus, was a Greek physician of Cos, who was one of the pupils of the celebrated Hippocrates, and lived in the 4th century BC.[1] Hecatomnus, prince of Caria (385-377 BC), sent for him to cure his sons, Mausolus and Pixodarus, of a dangerous illness, which he undertook to do upon condition that Hecatomnus should cease from waging war against his country.[1] He wrote some medical works, of which nothing but the titles remain. He was blamed by Erasistratus for his excessive severity in restricting the quantity of drink allowed to his patients.[2] He is quoted by Plutarch,[3] and Aulus Gellius,[4] in the controversy that was maintained among some of the ancient physicians as to whether the drink passed down the windpipe or the gullet.
