Характерные особенности
According to Hale Verbena h. grows profusely on the prairies and low bottom lands all over U.S. It is a popular domestic remedy for ague, especially when chronic. The root is intensely and disagreeably bitter. Doctor Griffin, of New York, suggests its use as a remedy for Rhus poisoning. Richey Horner (Med. сent., vi. 324) mentions a case of epilepsy developing during whooping-cough, treated with 12-drop doses ( presumably of the tincture ) every four hours. Improvement set in from the first and proved permanent; though during the first two weeks there were attacks of petit mal. The patient took the remedy at increasing intervals during six weeks.
