LKlwig & Co., Printer* M. T. THE EDITOR'S PREFACE. This work is not to be confounded with the original Manual of Jahr. The present Repertory is a record of the observations which Jahr has been collecting for the last nine years, at the bed-side of patients. It is therefore an eminently practical work, and its utility is enhanced by the fact, that the various articles treated of in tliis Repertory are arranged in alphabetical order. and can, therefore, be consulted with the greatest ease The reader will find, in reading Jahr's preface, that he gives the pre- ference to particular attenuations in the treatment of disease. The subject of doses has been subjected to a full and impartial examination in the " Pharmacopoeia and Posology,' a work which is now in press, and will soon be given to the public. All tho'se who take an interest in the doctrine of doses, are re- ferred t<> this work for more complete information. Charles j. hempel, m, d. New- York, December, 1849. 1 THE AUTHOR'S PREFACE. The present work is intended to offer the practitioner every tiling which it is necessary to know, in such a manner that, in whatever way the desired information may be sought to be obtained, the practitioner will be sure to find it. I have given both the symp- toms and the names of the diseases, and have not only given the pathogenetic indications with great completeness, from my own and other physicians' experience, but have endeavoured to complete these indications by referring the reader to kindred articles, and in tliis way, giving him an opportunity of studying the internal connection of the remedies, and their relation to the case for which they are recommended. It is true that this method will frequently lead the reader from one article to an- other through a long series; but, since in nature all things are connected, I consider tins circumstance an advantage rather than a disadvantage, so much more, as I know by experience, that the speediest, safest and easiest way of obtaining a full and correct insight into the nature of a particular case of. disease, is to study every thing which has a bearing upon it. As regards the names of diseases, I have adopted the nomen- clature of Peter Frank, with which physicians are more fa- miliarly acquainted. In treating of fevere, epilepsies, hysteric affections, &c, I have left Schcenlein's pathology out of consider- ation, for this reason, that his system is not much respected by the pathologists of the old school, and is combated with a good deal of spirit by the professors of Berlin, Vienna and Prague. A* 6 THE AUTHOR'S PREFACE. After all, pathological symptoms do not amount to much, pro- vided we prescribe in accordance with the totality of the symp- toms ; for, by pursuing this course, we cannot fail to prescribe for the thing, even if the name be left out of consideration, and provided always that Schumlein's classification of "uttrhtr, tes- ticular, thoracic and other kinds of epilepsy " be correct There is one work, however, which I regret not having had an oppor- tunity of consulting previous to the publication of this Repertory; it is Hebra's work on Cutaneous Diseases. Hebra's system com- biner practical advantages with great clearness and simplicity, whereas all other systems of cutaneous diseases are confused and without much practical value. Even as early as 1840, when I first published my " Klinischex Axwlisungen" in I-'muh, 1 ap- plied myself to the study of the German, French and English systems of cutaneous disease- : but the more I advanced in n:y study, the more I became convinced that it would be impossible to offer an intelligible nomenclature of these diseases to German, French and English practitioners. My " Repertory ok the CuT.vxEors Diseases" will supply this deficiency as nearly as pos-ible. This Repertory will contain a table exliibiting the chief names of all cutaneous diseases which have been adopted by our most distinguished pathologists, referring, moreover, to the sy- nonymes of these names in other systems, arid the symptoms in our Materia Medica which characterize the different diseases. This table will be as complete as possible, though it may not prove satisfactory to all. As regards the remedies which have been recommended for single symptoms as well as whole groups of symptoms, I have only named such as have proved them elves curative, either in the particular case before us, or by removing, incidentally, tho symptoms L i'uv u^ vhen belonging to a more cxi-en.-ive group. Remedies wluch have been proposed more or less speculatively, are marked with an interrogation-point (?). A great many new remedie - have been added to those that are mentioned in my origi- nal Manual. These remedies have all been successfully tried in praeti:v. and may, therefore, either be marked with a cipher (0), THE AUTHOR'S PREFACE. or, in case they should already be mentioned in the Manual, with an asterisk (*). Those who consult Boenninghausen's Re- pertory, will likewise find many useful hints and remarks in this Pocket-Repertory, and a number of remedies that were not yet much used heretofore. As regards the classification of reme- dies in Nos. 1, 2, 3,1 ought to state that, though this classification is essentially based upon experience and the relative importance of the remedies in the particular diseases for which they are indicated, yet the practitioner should never dispense with the trouble of comparing the symptoms of all the remedies men- tioned, since one of those arranged under Nos. 2 or 3, may be more specifically indicated than the remedies mentioned under No. 1. This classification is not absolutely true, and it would be wrong to infer that, because a remedy is found under No. 2 or 3, it cannot, therefore, be as useful as one of those mentioned under 1. This classification is merely intended to show that the remedies which are indicated in No. 1, arc, generally speaking, those wliich are more frequently used in this particular case of disease, and that the practitioner, in order to save time, had better examine the remedies under No. 1 first, before he compares those mentioned under Nos. 2 or 3. It is needless to give any further rules relative to the use of this work. The ui.-eases being alphabetically arranged, both in the index and the body of the work, all the practitioner has to do, is to look for the disease and then to study the paragraphs de- voted to it. Beginners, however, will do well to first* study the pysieniatio index following immediately after this preface, and more particularly in the article, "General diseases," those subjects which are printed in italics. By ihis means they will become fa- miliar with the plan of the work, and will know how to use it in particular cases. Tins is the plan which I have always pursued in teaching. For those who have never studied our Materia Medica, I have added the characteristic symptoms of our prin- cipal medicines; I ouglit to say, however, that this work ha« especially been- written for those who possess my Symptomen- Codex, or some other kind of Materia Medica, which they may 8 THE AUTHOR'S PREFACE. consult in important cases. To those who study our Materia Medica with care and attention, the work will prove a valuable vade mecum, and an excellent introduction to the study of larger works. The characteristic symptoms of our principal medicines have been appended for the benefit of those who are not yet acquainted with our Materia Medica, and who are at a loss to know how to commence that study. These characteristic symp- toms will serve as central points round which the other and less important symptoms of the medicines can easily be grouped. For the benefit of beginners, I will subjoin the following re- marks on the selection of remedies according to symptoms, and on the magnitude and repetition of doses. I know, from experience, that Hahnemann's rule, to select a remedy in accordance with the totality of the symptoms, is, in many cases, incorrectly apprehended by beginners, or by physicians who come over to our side from the alloeopathic ranks. They do not always distinguish primary and secondary symptoms. This in- correctness is, in the first place, owing to the fact that the old school considerably restricts the meaning of the term " symptom;" and, in the second place, to this other fact, that what is tecluiically termed " taking a record," consists simply in taking down the prominent symptoms without including other constitutional ailments, the treatment of which is postponed until the principal difficulty is removed. It is not supposed, for instance, by beginners, that piles and pneumonia, when occurring in the same patient, have any connection .with each other. It is on this account that I have always taught not only to consider the symptoms of the case, but also the symptoms of the patient. And even then I have not always been properly understood. Many symptoms, which our school considers as manifestations of the general disease, were considered as independent diseases by the beginner, simply be- cause they had particular names hi the old school works on pathology. I have, therefore, refrained from usmg the word symptom in my lectures to beginners, and have worded my fun- damental rule of treatment as follows: The proper selection of a remedy, in chronic and generally also in acute diseases, depends THE AUTHOR'S PREFACE. 9 upon the following three points : " 1. The remedy must correspond to the pathognomonic symptoms of the case ; 2, to the accidental symptoms vihich do not seem to be a part of the essential features of the disease; and 3, to all other diseases and morbid pheno- mena which we might discover in the patient." If a patient be afflicted with pneumonia, for instance, we should not only re- cord the essential symptoms of pneumonia, but also the symp- toms of any other affection of the eyes that might happen to co- exist with the inflamniation, such as: ectropion, pterygion, ble- pharoptosis, diplopia, amblyopia, Ac, and, moreover, the general morbid phenomena of the organism, no matter whether the books speak of them as mere symptoms or as independent diseases.. In all chronic diseases tins mode of recording the symptoms should he strictly pursued; and even in acute diseases the pro- per remedy will always be found to correspond to these three series of phenomena, though it need not be selected with par- ticular reference to the tliird series, provided the disease does not rest upon a chronic foundation, and was occasioned by some exceptional cause. The accidental symptoms, however, that is, those symptoms wlrich are not essentially pathognomonic, should be carefully noted in acute diseases, and the remedy should be selected with especial reference to these accidental symptoms. Some time ago I treated a man of 40 years for acute bronchitis. The remedies which were indicated by the pathognomonic symp- toms, such as Aeon., Bell., Bry., Dulc, Merc., had no effect. I then learned that the patient had a pain in the calf, as if bruised, with tension on setting the foot on the ground. The patient did not remember having ever hurt himself at that place. The spot looked reddish, green-yellow on the sides, and was painful to the touch. This led me to Conium 30, three globules in water. After the second dose the spot was less painful, the fever di- minished, the cough looser, and the appetite improved* * The apparently accidental symptoms are frequently the more essential iymptoms of the patient. He who knows how to distinguish them from the pathognomonic symptoms, will frequently be able to cure noma, dropsy, inguinal hernia, &c, with remedies which have never produced such dis- eases ; remedies which are individually essential to a cure, and such reme- dies do not always correspond to the pathognomonic symptoms. 10 THE AUTHOR'S PREFACE.

CLINICAL GUIDE; OR, POCKET-REPERTORY; ra a t-h e homoeopathic treatment or ACUTE AND CHRONIC DISEASES. N. B.—The classification of remedies which I have used in this Repertory, is the same as that which has been used in my Manual. The remedies un- der No. 1 are those that have acquired authority both from our provings and from experience at the sick-bed; the remedies under No. 2 are likewise authoritative, but not in the same absolute sense as those under No. 1. The remedies under No. 3 have only been confirmed by single cases, or are simply indicated theoretically; and the remedies marked with an interroga- tion-point (?), have never been used in practice, and are proposed upon 3 mere theoretical suggestion. CLINICAL GUIDE Fur the Homoeopathic Treatment of ACUTE AND CHRONIC DISEASES. ABSCESSES, internal and external.—§ 1. Internal ab- scesses generally require the same remedies as external. A preference should be given : a) for acute abscesses, to: Ars. asa. bell, bryon. cham. hep- led, mezer. phosph. puis, sulph. b) for chronic abscessps, whether cold or occasioned by con- gestions, to: Asa. aurum. calc. carb-veg. con. hep. iod. laur. lyr.np. mang. mere, mcrc-corr. nitr-ac. phos. sep. sil. sulph. § 2. Particular indications : Arsen. : for intolerable, burning pains, during the fever; or when the abscess threatens to become gangrenous, or is accompa- nied with great debility. Asa : for abscesses discharging a colorless, serous pus ; violent pains on contact, and great sensitiveness of the adjoining parts.

ALUM, POISONING BY, AND ILL F.FFECTS OF, ABUSE OF, for poisoning by large doses of: 1) Soap-water, or, 2) sugar-irater, until vomiting sets in ; afterwards Puis, or veratr. for the remain- ing symptoms. AMBLYOPIA, weakness or morbid alteration of sight; weak- I ness of sight, from mere dim-sightedness to complete blindnesi 1 may arise from so many causes, and may be attended with so many different morbid states of the organism, that there is scarce- ly a remedy which is not of advantage in the treatment of tha.: affection. I have, therefore, noted only the most efficacious ' remedies for amblyopia, furnishing particular indications to serve as points of support, and to facilitate the selection of remedies for particular cases. The principal remedies for amblyopia, are: 1) Aur. bell. calc. ' caust. chin. cic. cin. dros. hyos. mere, natr-m. n-vom. phos. pull. rut. sep. sil. sulph. veratr. 2) Agar. cann. caps. con. croc. dig.

For complete amaurosis, provided it is not incurable, the same remedies should be used as for amblyopia amaurotira, the reme- dy depending not so much upon the degree of weakness, as upon the totality of the symptoms. Unless secondary symptoms should require other remedies, we may use : Bellad. calc. mere. phosph. sep. sulph. &c, though any other remedy may be used if indicated by the general symptoms. For ere.thic amaurosis, principally: Bell. calc. cic. con. hyos. mere, nitr-ac. op.'phos. sep. sulph. &c. For torpid amaurosis: Aur. caps, caust. chin. dros. dulc. natr. natr-m. op. phos.-ac. plumb, sec. veratr. &c. § 2.

For cholerine, or for diarrhoea during the cholera: Phos. phos- ac. and sec. A species of cholera arising from chagrin or ange-r^ requires: 1) Cham., or 2) Colocyn., if anger and chagrin were combined. § 3. For the consequences of cholera, the following remedies have been recommended : Aeon. bell. bry. canth. carb-v. chin. hyos. op. phos-ac. rhus. stram. sulph. If the cerebral system be involved: Bell. lach. op., or: Aeon- hyos. stram. For inflammatory affections: Aeon. For gastric and abdominal affections : Bell bry. carb-v. mere. rhus. sulph.

Camphor: At the commencement of the disease, when there is neither thirst, nor vomiting or diarrhoea ; sudden prostration with wandering looks and hollow eyes ; bluish appearance and icy cold- ness of the face and hands, also coldness of the body; disconsolate anguish, with fear of suffocation ; the half stupified and insensible patient utters hoarse cries and moans, without complaining of CHOLERA and CHOLERINE. 59 any thing in particular; but, if asked, he complains of burning pains in the stomach and throat, with cramps in the calves and other muscles, and utters loud cries when one touches the pit of the Btomach.—Camphor is seldom suitable when vomiting, diarrhoea and thirst have already set in, but it should never be given, except when the following symptoms are present: Icy coldness and blueness of the limbs, face and even tongue, with tonic and painful cramps in the extremities and calves, dulness of sense, moaning, tetanus, and trismus. Cuprum : Vomiting and diarrhoea, convulsions of the extremi- ties, especially of the fingers and toes, sometimes with rolling of the eyeballs, great restlessness and coldness of the prominent parts of the face ; aching pains in the pit of the stomach, getting worse by contact; spasmodic colicky pains without vomiting, or vomit- ing preceded by spasmodic constriction of the chest, arresting the breathing, or vomiting attended with violent pressure in the epi- gastrium ; audible rolling, along the oesophagus, of the liquid which one swallows.

For a violent attack, Ipec. is of no use. (Nor for a moderate attack : Aconite is the sole and real specific for every variety or form of cholera. Hempel.) Secale cornutum : The vomiting is over, but the stools are not yet bilious, or there are still pains in the extremities ; or for diarrhoeic, brownish or flocculent and colourless stools with sudden prostration, icy coldness of the extremities, clean tongue or thinly coated with white mucus; the evacuations are preceded by vertigo, anguish, cramps in the calves, rumbling in the abdo- me'h, and nausea. Veratrum : Principal remedy, when there are violent evacu- ations upwards and downwards ; icy coldness of the body, great debility and cramps in the calves, vomiting, copious, watery, in- odorous stools mixed with white flocks, pale face without any colour, blue margins around the eyes, deathly anguish in the features, cold tongue and breath ; great oppressive anguish in the chest, giving the patient a desire to escape from his bed ; violent colic, especially around the umbilicus, as if the abdomen would be torn open, the abdomen is sensitive to contact, with drawing and cramps in the fingers, wrinkled skin in the palms of the hand, re- tention of urine 60 CHOLERA and CHOLERINE. § 5. Belladonna : For typhoid symptoms, coma with half- opened or distorted eyes, grating of the teeth and distortion of the mouth, or great restlessness, desire to escape, stitches iu the side or burning pains in the abdomen; burning heat and redness of the face, and desire for cold drinks; accelerated pulse which is more or less full, but not hard. Cantharis: The urinary passages are principally involved, with violent burning iu the hypogastrium, rumbling in the abdo- men, bloody stools with tenesmus, heat in the abdomen, great restlessness, cerebral symptoms.

Chamomilla : At the commencement of the disease, or in the precursors Mage, especially when the followiug symptoms occur: The tongue is coated witn yellow mucus, colic in the umbilical region, pressure Irom the region of the stomach to the heart, great anguish, cramp iu the calves, watery diarrhoea and sour vomiting. Cuina: Lienteria, vomiting of the ingesta, painful oppression in the abdomen, after eating ever so little, with oppression of the chest and eructations affording relief; loss of appetite with sensa- tion of repletion ; hippocratic countenance ; prostration unto fainting. Cicuta: Little diarrheal but the vomiting alternates with violent, tonic spasms of the muscles of the chest and distortion of the eyes ; or coma, with the eyes half open; heavy breathing, congestion of blood to the head and chest, vomiting or diarrhoea. Colocyntihs : Vomiting, first of the ingesta, afterwards of green substances, with violent colic, retention of urine, cramps in the calves, frequent, diarrhoeic stools, which, with every new eva- cuation, become more colourless and watery. Dulcamara: A species of cholera from taking cold drinks, with vomiting of the liquid, and of bilious, green or slimy and yellowish substances, frequent greenish stools, painful abdomen, with burning and retraction of the region of the stomach, great debility, collapsed pulse, cold extremities, burning thirst, great dulness of sense. Hyoscyamus: Typhoid symptoms, after the vomiting, diar- rhoea and coldness had ceased, with dulness of sense, wandering looks, red and hot face ; Bell, having proved useless. Lacuesis : For typhoid symptoms, if Bell, hyoscyam.ox opium rove inefficient. Laurocerasus : Rheumatic pains in the extremities, hardness CHOLERA, &c—CHINA. 61 of hearing, cloudiness of the brain, distortion of features, and sensation of constriction in the throat when swallowing. Nux vomica: Scanty diarrhoeic stools, but frequent urging and little or no discharge; cardialgia, great debility, anguish in the pit of the stomach, aching pain in the occiput, and internal rather than external chilliness. Opium : For stupor and coma which yield neither to Hyos- cyom. nor Bcllad.; these symptoms sometimes occur when the real cholera-symptoms have already ceased. Phosphorus: Diarrhoea attended by violent thirst, rumbling in the abdomen aud debility; the diarrhoea occurs during or after the cholera. Phosphoric acid: Diarrhoea with pale face, dulness of the head, viscid tongue so that the finger adheres to it, rumbling in the abdomen, and green-whitish, watery and slimy stools, with diminished secretion of urine. CINCHONA, ill effects of. § 1. The best remedies for these ailments are: 1) Arn. ars. bell. calc. ferr. ipec lach. mere. puis, veratr. for 2) Caps, carb-v. cin. natr. natr-m. sep. sulph. Arnica: For rheumatic pains, heaviness, languor and bruised pain in all the extremities, drawing in the bones, sensitiveness of all the organs of sense, aggravation of the pains by motion, talking and noise. Arsenicum : Ulcers on the extremities, dropsy or oedema of the feet, short cough and dyspnoea. Belladonna : Congestion of blood to the head, with heat in the face, pains in the head, face and teeth ; or for jaundice, when Merc, is insufficient. Calcarea : Headache, otalgia, toothache, pain in the limbs, especially when these symptoms were occasioned in consequence of the suppression of fever and ague by large doses of Quinine, and Puis, proved insufficient. Ferrum : For oedema of the feet. Ipecacuanha: 6 pills in water, a tablespoonful 3 times a day, generally removes most of the symptoms.

CONDITIONS OF AGGRAVATION, or Amelioration of the symptoms. § 1. There are practitioners who select a remedy princi- pally with reference to the external conditions of the symp- toms, such as: the time of day when they appear, the side of the body, head, chest, &c, where they appear, &c. This is evi- dently going too far, though it cannot be denied, that these ex- ternal conditions have a general value in many cases, and facili- tate the selection of a remedy, provided the practitioner is other- wise thoroughly acquainted with the essential points of our Materia Medica. To select a remedy with reference to these ex- ternal conditions exclusively, might prove of great detriment to the patient. § 2.

Aconitum: Violent fever with thirst, frequent and violent urg- ing to urinate, with no discharge or only a few drops of dark, red and turbid or bloody urine ; painfulness of the region of the blad- der when touching it, with increase of the pains during micturi- tion. (After Aeon, give Cann.) Camphora : When the disease is caused by abuse of Cantharides, in whatever shape they may have been used; or for complete suppression of urine, slow and thin stream, burning in the ure- thra and bladder. • Cannabis: Frequently after Aconite, for complete suppression of urine, or for urging to urinate especially at night, with burning pain ; or drops of bloody urine. Cantharides: Violent, but ineffectual urging to urinate, with drop-discharge of a saturated, dark urine, stinging and burning pains in the region of the bladder, before and after micturition, or cutting pains from the kidneys to the bladder; the abdomen ia CYSTITIS—DEADNESS. 97 distended and painful to contact, especially in the region of the bladder. Digitalis : The neck of the bladder is principally affected, with retention of urine and constrictive pain in the bladder, or frequent and painful urging to urinate, With discharge of a few drops of dark-red and turbid urine. Dulcamara: For chronic affections of the bladder, constant urging to urinate, painful pressing-down in the region of the blad- der and urethra ; drop-discharge of urine with mucous sediment or mixed with bloody lumps. (After Dulc, kal. or phos. is some- times suitable.) Kali carb : Violent cutting and tearing in the bladder, neck of the bladder and urethra ; less urine and fiery, with a good deal of ineffectual urging. (Is frequently suitable after Dulc.) Nux vom. : Frequent urging to urinate, with violent pains dur- ing and after micturition, which is very scanty ; burning pain in the urethra, bladder and kidneys ; contractive pain in the urethra after urinating; is suitable to patients who use a good deal of spirits, or who suffer with haemorrhoids. Phosphorus: Retention of urine as if there were an obstacle in the urethra, with pain in the abdomen when the last drops are discharged ; contractive pain in the bladder, or stitches from the neck of the bladder to the anus. (Is frequently suitable after Dulc.) Pulsatilla : The urging to urinate is attended by aching, burning and cutting pains in the region of the bladder ; heat and redness of this region, and sometimes complete suppression of urine ; or scanty, painful discharge of slimy urine, or of bloody urine, with purulent sediment. Sulphur : In obstinate cases, the urine is mixed with mucous or blood, burning in the urethra during micturition. (After Sulph., Calc. is frequently suitable, especially when the disease is caused by suppression of haemorrhoids; if the burning pains do not yield to Calc, give Ars. or Carbo-veg.)

Comp.: Amenia and Menstrual Irregularities. LICE-MALADY, Phthiriasis. § 1. For lice on the head and other parts of the body, the best remedy is cleanliness and regular habits. If lice should have formed, use : For lice on the head: Frequent washing with vinegar, mixed with part of a solution of one spoonful of tobacco-juice in a tum- blerful of water, or snuff in the place of the juice. If the scalp should not be sound, or if the children are very small, it is best to use the vinegar without tobacco-juice. The same mode of washing should be adopted for lice on other parts of the body. Tobacco-juice is likewise the best remedy for lice of the sexual organs, either in the shape of a wash of equal part* of tobacco- juice and vinegar, or of an ointment made of snuff and lard. If the use of tobacco should induce impleasant symptoms, diarrhoea, vomiting, Ac, Puis, will remove them very speedily.

PLAGUE, oriental.—The best remedies seem to be : 1) Ars- bell carb-veg. chin. rhus. 2) Bry. hep. lach. sil sulph. PLETHORA—Such a thing as too much blood does not exist. and the symptoms which seemed to point to an excess of blood, frequently yield as by magic to: 1) Aeon. bell. ferr. hyos. mere- n-vom. phos. puis, sulph. 2) Arn. aur. bry. calc. chin, croc. dig. graph, lye. natr-m. nitr. nitr-ae rhus. sep. stram. thuj., to be chosen in every case in accordance with the symptoms. PLEURITIS, PLEURISY.—The principal remedy is Aeon., a few pellets in water, a tablespoonful every 2 or 3 hours. After Aeon., if the improvement should not continue, give Bry., as above ; and if sensitiveness to the weather should still remain,. give Sulphur after Bry.—Complicated cases may require : Chin.

The principal remedy, in the first stage, is Aeon., after which Bry. may be given, to be continued until the breathing i» easier and the expectoration looks better. 22 254 PNEUMONIA. If weakness of the chest, oppression and cough should remain after Bry., give Phosph. or Sulph.; or Chin. lach. lye. sil. § 3. If hepatization should already exist before the horn, phy- sician is called, Aeon, and Bry. may still be of great use ; but the principal remedy is Sulph., a few pellets in a tumblerful of water, a tablespoonful every 3 hours. Lack, lye phosph. are likewise very useful at times, even after Sulph. (Jahr proposes to give only one dose, and to allow it to act for weeks! Hempel) § 4. For asthenic pneumonia (pneumonia notha) as we see it in old people, with danger of paralysis of the lungs, the principal remedy is likewise Aeon.; after which, if another paroxysm should set in, Mercury should be given. Bell should be given after Merc, if a spasmodic constriction of the chest, with dry hacking cough should remain ; or Cham., if the breathing continue wheezing. (After Cham, n-vom. is fre- quently suitable.) If no change should take place after Merc , give Ipec, espe- cially if the breathing be anxious and hurried; or Veratr., if the extremities be cold, with constriction of the chest and great anx- iety ; or Ars., if the patient sink more aud more, with suffocative paroxysms. § 5. Typhoid pneumonia first requires Op., then sometimes Arn. If no change should occur after these two remedies, give I c- ratr., or Ars., if the debility and rattling increase. Bry. and Rhus-t.; Ipec and Ars., or Vcrctr. and Ars. alter- nately, are likewise useful. If the improvement should not continue, give Sulph. and then again one of the former remedies which seemed to be mcsl beneficial. Bed-sores, especially if gangrenous, require Chin, and Ars. For obscuration of sight give Bell; and if the strength should continue to fail, Natrum-m. is sometimes useful. § 6. If symptoms of incipient phthisis should set in utter pneu- monia, or if the inflammation should threaten to become chronic, and if the existence of tubercles should have to be suspected, give 1) Sulphur; or: 2) Amm. lach. lye phosph.; or, 3) Ars. aur. caic. hep. kal. nitr. nitr-ac. ol-jee stann. sulph-ac. If purulent expectoration should remain after pneumonia, give: 1) Chin. ferr. hep. lach. lye. mere sulph.; or, 2) Dros. dulc. laur. led. puis.; or 3) Bell. ? hyos. ? phos-ac. ?

Stannum: This remedy is not indicated by a decidedly puru- lent expectoration ; but more than any other remedy by mucous expectoration in the first stage of consumption, or when a ne- glected calairh threatens to pass into phthisis. Sulphur: For pulmonary suppression aft-jr violent pneumonia, also for tuberculous phthisis in the second stage, even for incipient tuberculosis, provided the inflammatory symptoms had been re- moved by oiher remedies, (such as: Aeon, phos.), and a dose is allowed to act lor several woks. 268 PURPLE RASH—RHACHITIS. § 5. It may be proper here to repeat, that the remedy must be well chosen, otherwise it might produce a dannrroiis irrita- tion and even inflammation of crude tubercles.

Samuel Plumbe, Schoenlein and others, confound rupia and ecthyma; Hebra, applies the name rupia only to syphilitic herpes with pyramidal crusts ; Bate- .nan. who distinguishes R. simplex and R. proeminens, under- stands by it an eruption very similar to ecthyma with which other authors have either confounded rupia, or who, in its higher forms, have classed it with the corroding and spreading ulcers. Accord- ing to Bateman, the primitive form of rupia is vesicular, never pustulous, as that of ecthyma, though it is very difficult to dis- tinguish these eruptions from each other, when more developed, except perhaps by the fact that the crusts of rupia arc broader and less firmly adhering than those of ecthyma. Hcbra's rupia is the syphilitic form with conical scurfs, and is the same as Bate- man s rupia proeminens ; whereas Bateman's rupia simplex is identical with the so-called phagedenic blister of Hahnemann and a kind of phagedenic ulcers of older writers. § 2. According to these distinctions, we propose for rupia, or rupia {Seha nlcin), one or more of the following remedies, or of those which have been indicated for ecthyma. b) For rupia simplex {Bat em an), (the ulcus phagedenicum of some authors, or the bulla phagedenica of Hahnemann : 1) Ars. cham. graph, petr. sil. 2) Borax, calc. clem. hep. natr. nitr-ac. rhus. sep. squill staph. c) For the rupia of Hebra (rupia syphilitica or rupia proemi- nens of Bateman) Mcrrurius.

Carbo veg. : The paroxysms set in after sleeping, after rising in the morning, or while yet iu bed.

Veratrum : The paroxysms set in after the least motion, or are preceded by great anguish or despondency ; or attended by spasms, lock-jaw, convulsive motion of tho eyes and eyelids, etc. SYPHILIS AND SYCOSIS. The principal remedy is Mercurius 3, a dose every day or every other day. After eight or ten days, (or even after two or three days,) red tips, being healthy granulations, can be perceived at the bottom of the ulcer, which continue to increase. During this time the ulcer sometimes bleeds and the edges become depressed. After the syphilitic character of the ulcer, that is, its lardacc- ous appearance, has disappeared, and the cicatrix should not form properly, or proud flesh should start up from the ulcer, Nitr-ac can be given with excellent effect. Nitric-ac. is likewise excellent for chancres that had been in- effectually treated with large doses of Mercury. It should not be given when the chancres heal of themselves, without Mer- cury. § 3. Every chancre which is not treated, or improperly treat- ed with Mercury, becomes chronic after the lapse of from six to eight weeks, losing its lardaceous appearance and raised edges, and exhibiting a red surface with a hard bottom, and secreting a thin, bad pus. Nitr-ac. should not be given for such chancres, for it favours the breaking out of general syphilis, the symptoms of which are roseola on the abdomen, and pimples on the forehead and region of the stomach. The principal remedy is Mercurius, which should be continued, giving one dose every forty-eight hours until the chancre and the spots and pimples have disap- peared. Should doubtful symptoms develop themselves after the disappearance of the chancre, and should their true nature, whether mercurial or syphilitic, not be apparent, give: Aur. carb- v. lach. nitr-ac. phos-ac. thuj. § 4. Secondary chancres in the throat require the same treat- ment as the primitive chancre ; sometimes a few doses of Thuja may be given, if tho patient should have taken much Mer- cury. Buboes require Mercurius, the same as the chancre ; but if the patient should have been drugged with large doses of Calomel, give Nitr-ac, or sometimes Aurum or Carb-veg.

The red precipitate acts more intensely than the Mire, sol. Hahiim.. and Mueller reports a case where both these preparations failed, and Catnibaris effected a cure. Cin- uaharis is likewise effectual in gonorrhoea, even in cases where the other mercurial preparation* fail. Coullon of Weimar recommends Merc. corr. for chancre*, one half of a grain, 1st irit., with eight ounces of pure water and half an ounce ol spirits of wine, a tablespoonful morning and evening (dimi. nishing tho quantity when vomiting followed the first dose or two.) He re- commends baths of Merc, corrostr. for syphilitic eruptions, scrofula, &c. ex- cept when much Mercury had been used previously, in which case Acid. niir. is recommended. In sore ihrout I.ye., in ostitis and exostitis Si/., and in Utters and herpetic sores Sassap n: (ptisan) proved the most serviceable.

The best mode of classifying tinea, is as follows: TOBACCO, ILL EFFECTS OF. 319 » 1) Tinea, granulata, the real dry scaldhead, resembling favus, except that the tips are arched, not depressed in the shape of a goblet. 2) Tinea mucifl.ua, humid scaldhead, groups of pustules, with copious secretion of moisture, which, on drying, causes the hairs to stick together and covers the head like a layer. 3) Tinea favosa, s. favus, a sort of fungous growth, in the shape of small pustules depressed at their tips. . 4) Tinea annulata, circular groups of yellowish pustules, through whose centre a hair passes ; with destruction of the fol- licles. 5) Tinea amiantacea, or eczema of the hairy scalp, generally affecting old people. It might perhaps be desirable that we should finally succeed in prescribing certain remedies for certain forms of tinea, though I (Jahr) think that the constitutional symptoms of the patient are better indications for the selection of a remedy than the form of the eruption.

Under this head we arrange all fevers with typhoid symp- toms, such as : typhus gastricus, stupidus, versatitis, putridus, &c. ; and even pneumo-lyphus, for this is, after all, typhus affect- ing most particularly the lungs. Pneumonia may assume a typhoid character iu consoquence of excessive bleeding, but this would not be true pneumo-typbus, and the characteristic disorga- nization of the blood, as well as the regularity of the stages which we observe in true typhus, are wanting in such apparently typhoid diseases. In true typhus, whether putridus, petechialis, etc., Bry. and Rhus-t, are the principal remedies; if, however, neither of these remedies should be indicated by the symptoms, wo may resort to:— § 2 The following remedies : 1) Bell. bry. hyos. lack, mere, u-vom. phos-ac. rhus. stram. sulph. 2) Aeon. arn. ars. camph^ 334 TYPHUS. carb-v.*cham. chin, cocc lye mur-ac. natr-m. nitr-sp. n-mosch. op. puis, sulph. 3) Daph. gran. phos. sulph-ac. § 3.

The stage of debility requires: 1) Rhus.; or, 2) Ars. carb- veg^ chin, mere mur-ae ; or, 3) Arn. lach. n-mosch. phos-ac. sulph.—Carbo-veg. particularly will sometimes bring about a fa- vourable change, even if life seems almost extinct.

Ulcers, without an exception, depend upon a particular dyscrasia of the organism, and cannot be radically healed except by means of remedies which are capable of eradicating the dys- crasia, of which the ulcer is a mere symptom. Nevertheless, the character, configuration or other peculiarities of ulcers, should not be left out of consideration in selecting a remedy.

A onitum : Dry and wheezing cough, with fever, or burning pains in the larynx or trachea. Carijoveg.: Convulsive cough, especially m the evening or before midnight, with red neck, pain in the throat when swal- lowing, lachrymation ; or stitches in the head, pains in the chest and throat, or when an eruption breaks out on the head or ab- domen. Dulcamara: Moist cough from the commencement, with easy expectoration and hoarseness, and when the cough was brought on bv taking cold. Ipecacuanha : The cough is accompanied by great anguish, suffocative symptoms and bluish face ; Nux v. being insufficient. Nix vom. : Dry cough from midnight till morning, with vomit- ing, anguish, suffocation, bluish face, bleeding from the mouth and nose. Pulsatilla: Moist rough from the first, with vomiting of mucus or of the ingesta, or mucous diarrhcea. £ 3. In the spasmodic period, with vomiting and bleeding from nose and mouth, the best remedies are : 1) Cin. cupr. dros. veratr.; or : 2. Bell, mere Ci.na : During the paroxysm the children suddenly become rigid, and the paroxysm is followed by a gurgling noise from the throat to the abdomen. This remedy is a specific, when the children are affected with the usual worm-symptoms, such as : Cutting in the bowels, itcliing of the anus, desire to rub one's nose or to bore with the finger in it.—Merc, is likewise suitable for these symptoms. Cuprum: The body becomes rigid during the paroxysm, with arrest of breathing and loss of consciousness; vomiting after the paroxysms, and rattling of mucus in the chest between the paroxysms. (After Cupr., Veratr. is frequently suitable.) Droseea: Excessive violence of the paroxysms, wheezin^ cough; no fever, or else: high fever with chills and heat, thirst only after the chills, the sweat is rather hot than cool, and sometimes sets in only at night; aggravation during rest, re- lief from motion. Drosera is generally the best remedy for iully developed whooping-cough, with vomiting of food or mucus, and bleeding from the mouth and nose. (After Dros Veratr. is sometimes suitable.) Veratrum : Dros. and Cupr. being insufficient, or sometimes Deiore these medicines have been given, especially when the children are very feeble, with a sort of hectic fever, cold sweat, especially on the forehead; small, hurried and feeble pulse; great thirst; or thf coughing causes an involuntary emission ot urine, and pain in the chest and loins; between the parts- WHOOPING-COUGH. 355 ysms the patients are in a comatose state, and care not either to move or converse; excessive weakness of the neck, so that the children are scarcely able to keep their head erect; attended with rash over the whole body, or only in the face and on the hands. § 4. The convulsive fonn of whooping-cough is not always fully developed, and it frequently happens that, at a period when the whooping-cough is epidemic, children are seized with a spasmodic cough which is without a great many of the charac- teristic symptoms of whooping-cough The best remedies for such a cough are : Bell bry. jod. mere, sulph. tart. Belladonna : Cerebral irritation, or the cough is preceded by a painful sensation in the region of the stomach, with bleeding of the nose and mouth, or ecchymoses in the eye; or when other spasmodic symptoms, such as: tetanus, convul- sive asthma, efec. are present; or when the paroxysms termi- nate in sneezing. Bryonia : The paroxysms set in principally in the evening or at night, or after eating or drmking, with loss of breath, want of air, and vomiting of the ingesta. Jodium : The cough is excited by tickling in the bronclu, with undulating inspirations during the paroxysms, which are preceded by great anguLsh, attended with great exhaustion, emaciation. Lactuca : Violent cough, with vomiting after every paroxysm, but without any other characteristic symptoms. Mercurius : Cough only at night or only in the day-time, two paroxysms succeeding each other closely, and separated from the next two paroxysms by a longer interval of repose; or suitable for the real whooping-cough, when the children, during the vomiting, bleed profusely from nose, and mouth, with profuse sweat at night and great nervousness; especially when the children are affected with worms and are liable to convulsions. (The last mentioned symptoms sometimes require Carb. veg. after Merc.) Sit.i'hur : The paroxysms are accompanied with vomiting, and do not yield to any of the above-mentioned remedies. Tartarus : The vomiting is accompanied by diarrhcea, with great prostration, or the children vomit up their supper in the first hours after midnight. § 6. If the convulsive period have run its course, and catarrhal symptoms remain, use: Arn. carb-veg. dulc. hep. puis. Arnica : The children weep much after coughing, or the paroxysms are preceded by screams and crying, or they are caused by these screams. 356 WORM-AFFECTIONS. CARBO VEG.: The catarrhal cough frequently becomes spasmodic, or the vomiting keeps up though the other symptoms of whooping-cough have disappeared. Dulcamara: The catarrhal cough is accompanied by profuse expectoration of mucus. Hepak : The cough abates, but is hacking, dry and rough, with desire to vomit after the paroxysms, and frequent weeping. Pulsatilla: Moist cough, with easy expectoration of serous mucus. § 6. Although we have distinguished whooping-cough into stages, yet it must not be supposed that the remedies which have been respectively indicated for the different stages, cannot be used for any other; on the contrary, many of the remedies which we have mentioned for the spasmodic stage, may, in many cases, be required in the precursory stage, and vice versa. Let it be remembered, that the selection of a remedy does not depend upon the name of the disease, but upon the symptoms, the pathological character of the disease, and the state of the patient. .
