Hi,

Here is an excerpt from Buck's Outlines of Materia Medica (from Encyclopedia
Homeopathica):

- Large doses will produce a sense of constriction and burning in the
throat and stomach, with pain at pit, increased by pressure;
- Vomiting of a green or brown, blackish, grumous substance, and sometimes
florid blood
- the countenance becomes pale and anxious ;
- the skin cold and clammy, and a state of collapse is speedily induced ;
- Frequent pulse, and hurried respiration.
- Sometimes, from smaller doses-Inflammation of the mouth;
- Soreness and swelling of the tongue ;
- Troublesome Cough ;
- Cramps and numbness of the limbs ;
- Severe headache ;
- Delirium and convulsions, are the principal symptoms.

- It probably poisons the Blood.
- It has been used, in Allopathic practice, for Inflammation of the Lungs
and Stomach ;
- also in Phthisis, alternated with Fluoric Acid.
- In Homoeopathy it is thought to resemble Nux Vomica, from its apparent
similarity of action on the nervous system.
- It seems to act on the Brain, Heart, Lungs, and Stomach.
- A case of Chronic Inflammation of the Abdomen is; recorded as cured ;
- and some affections of the urinary and sexual organs.
- Heaviness and pains in the testes, with weakness of the sexual powers,
have been benefited by its use.
- Laryngitis ;
- Disease of the lungs;
- Palpitation of the heart;
- Rheumatism of the joints ;
- Lameness of the lower limbs, are all placed in the category.
- Hempel tells us that it will be useful for Neuralgia of the Spine ;
- Pyrosis ;
- Gastro-Enteritis and a feeling of numbness, threatening Paralysis.
- Thus it will be seen that the two opposed systems nearly resemble each
other in opinion on the action of this drug.

Peace,
Gregory
