(Ἀβλάβιος).

1. A physician on whose death there is an epigram by Theosebia in the Greek Anthology (7.559), in which he is considered as inferior only to Hippocrates and Galen. With respect to his date, it is only known that he must have lived after Galen, that is, some time later than the second century after Christ.
