Some Acts of the Materia Medica

-- H.C. Morrow, M.D. & A. Quackenbush, M.D.
(Read before I.H.A., Bureau of Clinical Medicine, June 7, 1940)

 
 

Sulphur, Hepar, Calc. Sulph. and Sepia are the exceptions; few antipsorics bear repetition.

Sulphur, Calcarea, Syphilinum, Tuberculinum, Carbo vegetables are sure to cause reaction when well-chosen remedies fail to act. This is especially true of Sulphur in acute cases.

Moschus acts beneficially when the disorder does not follow its normal course but remains uncured or develops serious symptoms indicating nervous exhaustion.

Aurum, Asafoetida, Castoreum, at time may be given in cases of women who are nervous and do not react after illness.

Bovista, in urticaria or other eruptive diseases when Rhus toxicodendron fails to act though apparently indicated.

Mercurius: With this remedy water treatment should be carefully avoided in acute or chronic cases.

Lachesis is especially useful when paroxysms of fevers return after taking acids.

Colchicum hastens relapse of gout if abused.

Phosphorus, Iodine, Mercurius generally act better in warm dry rather than cold wet weather.

Arum triphyllum should not be given low or repeated often as deleterious effects frequently follow.

Kali carbonicum will bring on menses when Natrum muriaticum, although indicated fails.

Atropa belladonna suits persons with well-developed, acute brains and well-trained nervous systems.

Pulsatilla: the principal time for symptoms to appear is in the evening and until midnight.

Ailanthus odorata affects women and children more than men, and old people least of all.

Agaricus phalloides : poison symptoms of this drug do not develop until eight or ten hours after taking. No similarity to Colchicum.

Causticum has a primary action apparently later than any other antipsoric.

Lachesis: care with administration is required in acute diseases because administration is almost always followed by an aggravation.

Salamander, when Crotalus, Lachesis and other remedies do not act, frequently brings the desired effect.
