Hi,

This is an excerpt from Blackwood's Manual of Materia Medica (from
Encyclopedia Homeopathica):

Physiological action
- This agent produces vertigo, weakness, delirium and convulsions, which
may be general or local, and insensibility.

Therapeutics
- This remedy is indicated in convulsions that are epileptiform in
character, and in epilepsy.
- The face is swollen, livid, or pale; the eyes are fixed, the pupils
dilated, and there is frothing at the mouth, oppressed breathing and
coldness of the extremities.
- The pulse is weak.
- The spasms are first tonic, then clonic in character.
- The attacks are usually worse during menstruation and pregnancy.
- It is also of service in cases of leprosy and ichthyosis; also where
there are red spots on the face, and a pain that commences in the small of
the back and extends to the sciatic and crural nerves.
Compare
- Hydrocyanic acid

Peace,
Gregory
