Typical features

 As Agaricus is used in many parts for making an intoxicating drink, we find in alcoholism a sphere for its action, and also in all states of delirium, mania, and even idiocy. A peculiarity of the delirium is to make verses and prophesy; also silly merriness, and incoherent talk, with mania; kisses companions. Talcott considers Agaric. gives the nearest approach to general paralysis of all remedies; exalted notions of grandeur and power, hilarity, and excitement followed by depression, confusion, imbecility. Accompanying bodily symptoms are vertigo (marked and persistent), with constant impulse to fall backward; twitching about eyes and face, redness without heat, puffy and distorted. Ravenous appetite, with bolting of food. Sexual appetite enormous and enthusiastic, with relaxed penis and impotence. Throughout the body there are spasmodic twitchings, followed by waning tremulousness; finally relaxation and exhaustion. In all these respects the drug accurately corresponds with the disease. Typhoid states often call for it, and also epilepsy. Rolling of the head is a leading indication for it in brain affections and fever. Peculiar headaches are: Throbbing headache, with sensation of stiffness of muscles of face. Dull, drawing headache in the morning, extending into root of nose, with nose-bleed or thick mucous discharge. Pain as from a nail in right side of head. One of the most characteristic of the Agaricus effects is the muscular jerking and twitching it sets up. This renders it appropriate in large numbers of cases of chorea. Twitchings are especially marked in the eyes, eyelids, and facial muscles; and Agaricus has cured many cases of blepharospasm and tic convulsif. Pain as if touched or pierced by needles of ice is very characteristic. вelonging to a low order of vegetation Agar. produces fetidity of breath, eructations, and stools. Sweat may be oily but is not offensive. Agar. is a spleen medicine, causing stitch in the side, and it has cured stitch in runners, enabling them to run further. The symptoms of Agaricus are apt to appear at the same time on opposite sides of the body but diagonally (right upper and left lower, or vice versâ). The nervous patients requiring Agar. pass little urine (opp. Ign.), though the bladder may be irritable.
 Mushrooms are among the articles of diet forbidden by Grauvogl to persons having the hydrogenoid constitution, as described by him, in which the patients are exceedingly sensitive to cold and damp. Agreebly with this we find in the provings of Agaricus great sensitiveness to cold air. All symptoms are in a room. сonversely to sensitiveness to cold there is sensitiveness to the rays of the sun, and sunstroke is within the curative range of Agaric.

Dif. diagnostics

 Compare: вovista; Sticta pulmon. Act. right; сan. ind. Op. Stram. (alcoholism, chorea); сoff. (ecstasy); сicut. (spasm of eyes); сodein (spasm of eyelids); Mygale; Tarent. Verat. alb. (icy-cold feeling in head); Ars. (hot needles; Agar. ice-cold needles) Agar. stands between Stram. and Lach. It is antidoted by: сharcoal; coffee; wine; brandy; camphor; fat or oil (relieves stomach); сalc. c. (relieves icy coldness); Puls. Rhus (nightly backache). It follows well: вell., сalc. c., Merc., Op., Puls., Rhus, Sil. Is followed by: Tarent. (typhoid with rolling of the head ). Teste includes Agar. in his вelladonna group.
