There is not a crowned head nor potentate in Europe before whom I would not gladly and fearlessly put my system to such test. Give me but a clear cut case one that has not been spoiled by massive dosage or surgery, and I am willing that the system shall stand or fall by the result." "That is perfectly fair, and I know, Doctor, that you would succeed," said the Count.
At one-hour intervals he twice repeated the grain dosage. But so slow was the action of the drug that dawn had broken ere his eyes closed. At seven he was awake again, dry-mouthed, feeling stupid and drowsy, yet incapable of dozing off for more than several minutes at a time. He abandoned the idea of sleep, ate breakfast in bed, and devoted himself to the morning papers and the magazines.
As I never encountered any cures nor received the slightest benefit from my experiments, I was deterred from injuring myself through persistent dosage.
It probably should not be given if the patient has previously had good dosage of digitalis.
If a patient has not been receiving digitalis, it is best to begin with a small close and gradually increase the dosage, rather than to give the heart a sudden shock from an enormous dose of digitalis.

He has the height, the facial features, the hands, and the sort of mentality that run together in his endocrine make-up. He also has the headaches. It is quite probable that feeding him pituitary gland extract in the proper dosage would relieve him of his headaches.
I can hardly resist the conclusion that faith in dosage is, by as much, inability for the deduction of science. "I know whereof I believe," is the language of Science. "I believe," is the language of credulity with all the ways back to cause too hazy for the perception of even the assuring guide-boards.
Being a very powerful drug, it was essential to measure exactly how strong your extract was so its dosage could be controlled. Quantitative organic chemistry was rather crude in those days.
