Hyoscyamus niger<\/span><\/h1>\n

High-grade delirium, similar to that of\u00a0STRAMONIUM\u00a0<\/strong>and\u00a0BELLADONNA<\/strong>; alternating with low-grade delirium, with stupor, equal to that of\u00a0OPIUM<\/strong>. Face pale.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Grasping at flocks, picking the bed clothes and subsultus tendinum.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Persistent cough, worse lying down, relieved on sitting up, especially in elderly people.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dementia senilis; fears imaginary things, being poisoned, etc.; sees persons and things that are not present; foolish laughter.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

General twitching of all the muscles of the body; in spasms or convulsions.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The mania often takes on the lascivious form. The patient uncovers and exposes himself, sings and talks amorously.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Fears being poisoned; suspicious and jealous.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Constant staring at surrounding objects, self-forgetful (fevers). Pupils dilated; insensible; small objects seem very large. Sordes on teeth; grating the teeth. Alternates well with\u00a0RHUS TOX.<\/strong>\u00a0( fevers).<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

HYOSCYAMUS\u00a0<\/strong>is as delirious as\u00a0BELLADONNA<\/strong>, but the high grade of delirium alternates with the low. With\u00a0BELLADONNA\u00a0<\/strong>the violent form predominates, while the quiet or stupid form is the exception. With\u00a0HYOSCYAMUS\u00a0<\/strong>it is just the other way. The stupid muttering form predominates, with occasional outbreaks of the violent form. The face of the\u00a0BELLADONNA\u00a0<\/strong>patient is red, that of\u00a0HYOSCYAMUS\u00a0<\/strong>pale and sunken. The\u00a0HYOSCYAMUS\u00a0<\/strong>patient is weak and the weakness increases. His violent outbreaks of delirium cannot keep up long on account of weakness. This is not so much so with either\u00a0BELLADONNA\u00a0<\/strong>or\u00a0STRAMONIUM<\/strong>. The\u00a0HYOSCYAMUS\u00a0<\/strong>patients may begin with the violent form or outbreaks of delirium, but they grow more mild and less frequent, and the low or tupid form increases until there is total unconsciousness; so much so that it sometimes becomes difficult to choose between it and\u00a0OPIUM<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The case takes on typhoid symptoms fast. The tongue gets dry and unwieldy, the sensorium so cloudy that even if you can arouse the patient to answer questions correctly he immediately lapses right into stupor again. This unconscious condition may continue even with the eyes wide open, staring around the room, but seeing nothing but flocks, at which the patient reaches and grasps;\u00a0PICKS THE BED CLOTHES,<\/strong>\u00a0indistinctly muttering, or not saying a word for hours. The teeth are covered with sordes; the lower jaw drops; stools and urine pass involuntarily; thus presenting the most complete picture of great prostration of mind and body. This is a picture of\u00a0HYOSCYAMUS\u00a0<\/strong>as we find it often in typhoid fever, or typhoid pneumonia (where it is the best remedy I know of), scarlatina and other diseases. It is a wonderful remedy, but not of wide range like\u00a0BELLADONNA<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

HYOSCYAMUS\u00a0<\/strong>is not only a great remedy in the acute affections of which we have written, but it is also one of the most useful in chronic manias. If acute delirium passes on into the settled form, called mania, this remedy is still one of our chief reliances. It is much oftener of use here than\u00a0BELLADONNA<\/strong>. Again, if the mania comes on after an acute disease it is still one of our leading remedies. In these forms of mania there are certain very marked symptoms calling for its use, such as, the patient is very suspicious; will not take the medicine because he thinks you are trying to\u00a0POISON\u00a0<\/strong>him, or thinks some plot is being laid against him. He is\u00a0JEALOUS\u00a0<\/strong>of others, or the first cause of the attack is jealousy. Again, the mania often takes on the\u00a0LASCIVIOUS\u00a0<\/strong>form. The patient uncovers and exposes himself, sings and talks amorously.\u00a0HYOSCYAMUS\u00a0<\/strong>leads all the remedies for this form of mania.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The patient, like the one in acute delirium of this remedy, is liable to alternate between the mild and violent manifestations; at one time so mild and timorous as to hide away from every one, and again so violent that she will attack, beat, fight, scratch, and try to injure anyone within reach.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The\u00a0HYOSCYAMUS\u00a0<\/strong>maniac is generally weak, and so this remedy is found particularly adapted to mania consequent upon the\u00a0INFIRMITIES OF AGE.<\/strong>\u00a0Of course it is useful in all ages if indicated by the symptoms.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The nervous manifestations of this remedy are not confined to the cerebral symptoms; but seem to involve the whole system. As H. N. Guernsey says: “EVERY<\/strong>\u00a0MUSCLE IN THE BODY TWITCHES, FROM THE EYES TO THE TOES<\/strong>.” This is one of his chief indications for its use in convulsions, whether epileptic or not. The spasms are generally of the clonic, not the tonic order, as in\u00a0NUX VOMICA<\/strong>\u00a0or\u00a0STRYCHNIA<\/strong>. Nor are they so violent as those under\u00a0CICUTA VIROSA<\/strong>; but the\u00a0GENERAL TWITCHING<\/strong>\u00a0is characteristic in convulsions, as is the\u00a0SUBSULTUS TENDINUM\u00a0<\/strong>in typhoids.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

HYOSCYAMUS\u00a0<\/strong>is very useful in a form of dry cough which is aggravated\u00a0WHEN LYING DOWN\u00a0<\/strong>and relieved by sitting up. Here, too, it is particularly useful in old people. I have already referred to its great usefulness in pneumonia. I wish\u00a0TO\u00a0<\/strong>emphasize IT, and believe it to be the leading remedy in the typhoid form of the disease. At least it has performed wonders for me.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It is also very useful in scarlatina of the typhoid form, and is complementary to RHUS TOX. in those cases. I never alternate the two, but if the depressed sensorium and delirium goes beyond the power of RHUS to control I suspend the RHUS for a day or two and give HYOSCYAMUS, which will so improve the case that RHUS may again come into use and carry it to a successful termination. This is the only alternation I am ever guilty of. It is like that of Hahnemann when he alternated BRYONIA and RHUS in fevers.<\/p>\n
