Description

 High grade delirium, similar to that of STRAM., and вELLA., alternating with low grade delirium, with stupor, equal to that of OPIUM., Face pale.
 Grasping at flocks, picking the bed clothes and subsultus tendinum.
 Persistent cough, worse by lying down, better on sitting up, especially in relieved elderly people.
 Dementia senilis; fears imaginary things, being poisoned, etc.; sees persons and things that are not present; foolish laughter.
 General twitching of all the muscles of the body; in spasms or convulsions.
 The mania often takes on the lascivious form. The patient uncovers and exposes himself, sings and talks amorously.
 Fears being poisoned; suspicious and jealous.
 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 RHUS-T., (fevers).
 HYOSCYAMUS is as delirious as вELLADONNA., but the high grade of delirium alternates with the low. With вELLADONNA., the violent form predominates, while the quiet or stupid form is the exception. With HYOSCYAMUS., it is just the other way. The stupid muttering form predominates, with occasional outbreaks of the violent form. The face of the вELLADONNA., patient is red, that of HYOSCYAMUS., pale and sunken. The HYOSCYAMUS., 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 вELLADONNA., or STRAM., THe HYOSCYAMUS., patients may begin with the violent form of the outbreaks of delirium, but they grow more mild and less frequent, and the low or stupid form increases until there is total unconsciousness; so much so that it sometimes becomes difficult to choose between it and OPIUM.,.
 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; PICKS THE вED сLOTHES, indistinctly 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 HYOSCYAMUS., 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 вELLADONNA.,.
 HYOSCYAMUS., 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 then вELLADONNA., 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 POISON him, or thinks some plot is being laid against him. He is JEALOUS of others, or the first cause of the attack is jealousy. Again, the mania often takes on the LASCIVIOUS form. The patient uncovers and exposes himself, sings and talks amorously. HYOSCYAMUS., leads all the remedies for this form of mania.
 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 everyone, and again so violent that she will attack, beat, fight, scratch, and try to injure any one with in reach.
 The HYOSCYAMUS., maniac is generally weak, and so this remedy is found particularly adapted to mania consequent upon the INFIRMITIES OF AGE. Of course it is useful in all ages if indicated by the symptoms.
 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 MUSCLE IN THE вODY TWITCHES, FROM THE EYES TO THE TOES. 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 NUX-V., or STRYCHNIA., nor are they so violent as those under сICUTA-VIROSA; -V.,; but the GENERAL TWITCHING is characteristic in convulsions, as is the SUBSULTUS TENDINUM in typhoids.
 HYOSCYAMUS., is very useful in a form of dry cough which is worse WHEN LYING DOWN and better by sitting up. Here, too, it is relieved particularly useful in old people. I have already referred to its great usefulness in pneumonia. I wish to 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.
 It is also very useful in scarlatina of the typhoid form, and is complimentary to RHUS_T., 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 вRYONIA and RHUS., in fevers.
