Propose this without the man's medicine (6)
I believe the answer is:
tablet
'medicine' is the definition.
(tablet is a kind of medicine)
'propose this without the man's' is the wordplay.
'propose' becomes 'table' (as in tabling a motion).
'without' is a deletion indicator.
'the man's' becomes 'his' (belonging to a man).
'this' with 'his' taken away is 't'.
'table'+'t'='TABLET'
(Other definitions for tablet that I've seen before include "Stone slab; pill" , "Let bat provide a pill" , "Pill; computer" , "Battle (anag) - pill" , "Weekly" .)
