Use the stomach-tube to give a solution of permanganate of potash, emetics, followed by a hypodermic injection of 1/50 grain of atropine. Transfusion of saline fluid. A dose of castor-oil would be useful. =Foods.= The kinds of food which most frequently produce symptoms of poisoning are pork, veal, beef, meat-pies, potted and tinned meats, sausages, and brawn.
The crystals are then dissolved in alcohol, which, on being poured into water, parts with them in the same form. Hyoscyamine crystallizes in the acicular form, with greater difficulty even than atropine, it also forms less compact crystals. Its fusing point is 149.6 deg. F. I have not yet succeeded in crystallizing any of its more simple salts. The double platinum salt melts at 392 deg.
I formally stated that he took atropine had been originally poisoned by atropine: but we saw that his present symptoms were not atropine symptoms, but, it almost seemed, of some other vegetable poison, which we could not precisely name. 'Mysterious thing, said Clark to me, when we were alone. 'I don't understand it, I said. 'Who are the two nurses? 'Oh, highly recommended people of my own.
We were silent, she and I; I standing, looking at her, she drawing the thumb across the leaf-edges, and beginning again, contemplatively. Then she laughed dryly a little a dry, mad laugh. 'Why did you start when I said that? she asked, reading now at random. 'I! I did not start, Clodagh! What made you think that I started? I did not start! Who told you, Clodagh, that Peters takes atropine?
From that moment to the moment when the Boreal bore me down the Thames, all the world was a mere tumbling nightmare to me, of which hardly any detail remains in my memory. Only I remember the inquest, and how I was called upon to prove that Peters had himself injected himself with atropine. This was corroborated by Wilson, and by Clodagh: and the verdict was in accordance.
A month later the tension rose to 28 mm., but for a year has continued normal; the eye did well under tuberculin treatment, and without any local treatment. In September of this year I had two cases of iritis in which the intra-ocular tension rose to 45 and 52 mm., respectively, and gradually returned to normal, with the cure of the iritis under atropine.
He consequently modified his formula, and gave the following as the composition of atropine; C H NO . Liebig's amended analysis was afterward confirmed by Planta, who further showed that the alkaloid itself melted at 194 deg. F., and its double gold salt at 275 deg. F. It is worthy of remark that the first figure was considered correct until my researches proved the contrary.
Venous congestion, engorgement of brain and membranes. Treatment. Emetics, stimulants freely. Best antidote is sulphate of atropine, 1/50 grain hypodermically, and also strychnine. Digitalis also useful. Warmth to whole body. Patient to make no exertion. Fatal Dose. Of root or tincture, 1 drachm. Fatal Period. Average, less than four hours. Method of Extraction from the Stomach, etc.
"I ask because eyedrops contain atropine, and mademoiselle is suffering from a slight, a very slight, attack of atropine poisoning. The dose must have been very nicely gauged; it was just enough to produce a temporary hoarseness and discomfort. I needn't tell such a clever girl as you that atropine acts first on the throat.
Simply because the criminal put a little atropine, or belladonna, with the morphine. My tests show absolutely the presence of atropine, Dr. Hanson," said Craig, bowing to the physician. "The best evidence, however, is yet to come. A second box of six capsules, all intact, was discovered yesterday in the possession of Henry Vandam. I have analysed the capsules.
