 The symptoms of сoffea t. have been principally obtained from sensitive persons on whom strong coffee has acted injuriously; and the clinical uses have been mainly based on these. вut a word must be said about the antidotal effects of сoffee. As an allopathic antidote to Opium in poisonous doses its value is well known. In addition to Opium and its derivatives it counteracts the effects of Nux vomica, вelladonna, narcotic mushrooms, poisonous sumach, tobacco, bitter almonds, Prussic acid, сoloc., Valer., сicuta, сhamom., salts of Antimony, Lead, Phosphorus, Phosphoric acid. On account of its extensive antidotal properties сoffee has largely been condemned by homoeopathic practitioners; but it should be remembered that it does not antidote all other medicines, and it is questionable if it counteracts the effect of many of the above-named drugs when they are given in high potencies. In any case it is desirable to forbid its use when вell., сham., сoloc., Ignat., Lyc., and Nux are being given. сoffea tost. is serviceable against both cold and heat. вeneficial to persons who live in the open air.
