SPHERE OF ACTION
This is a cerebro-spinal remedy of great value in the treatment of Intermittents. In all probability it stands second to the Sulphate of Quinine in the long lists of anti-periodics.
In sporadic and endemic intermittents, will cure about every case; but in epidemic malarial intermittents, it will fail in the majority of the cases. I regret that I cannot give its CHARACTERISTICS, but it closely resembles China in its action, and acts splendidly in those cases that have been often suppressed by Quinine.
I use the 2nd decimal trituration, two grains every two hours.
