'Well, wot I'd do if I was you, suggested Elizabeth, 'is to begin the doses all over again 'Good, said Henry. 'Firstly the ipecac. 'Oh, must I? interrupted The Kid. To my intense relief Marion dashed in at that moment. 'Have you given her an emetic? she demanded breathlessly. Elizabeth, Henry and I gathered round her with the necessary information. 'She has had several. Ipecac. 'Twice.
If mustard or salt is not at hand, compel the patient to drink lukewarm water very freely until vomiting occurs. Vomiting may be hastened by thrusting the forefinger down the throat. Two teaspoonfuls of the syrup of ipecac, or a heaping teaspoonful of powdered ipecac taken in a cup of warm water, make an efficient emetic, especially if followed with large amounts of warm water.
She seemed to feel an accusation in his eyes. She said: "I did all I could." He asked "What was it?" I had it in me though I had reason enough to despise the little man to pity Hazen Kinch. "He coughed," said the woman. "I knew it was croup. You know I asked you to get the medicine ipecac. You said no matter no need and you had gone." She looked out of the window.
This is indicated where the discharges are watery, and where there is vomiting and coldness of the feet and hands. Chamomilla is also an excellent remedy. Ipecac and nux vomica may also be given. In giving homoeopathic remedies, give 5 or 6 pellets every 2 or 3 hours. If a child is suffering with swollen gums, is feverish, restless, and starts in its sleep, give nux vomica.
Putting up her little hands as she lay in bed, she said, "Dear Jesus, will oo please to cure me, and do please tell papa what to give me." The father, who was listening, thought several times of "syrup of ipecac" but did not connect it immediately with the prayer.
The extraordinary and disgraceful prevalence of bleeding scarcely fifty years ago, for instance; the murderous doses of calomel and other violent purges; the indiscriminate use of powerful emetics like tartar emetic and ipecac; the universal practice of starving or "reducing" fevers by a diet of slops, were all obvious survivals of the expulsion-of-the-demon theory of treatment.
Somehow, Joe, when I see a shipping man's son fooling away his time on a pleasure yacht instead of learning the shipping business, I feel as if I'd just taken a dose of ipecac." "Godfather is out of sorts," Joey soliloquized sagely, and resolved to wait a day or two before broaching the subject of a loan. Cappy Ricks surveyed the young fellow severely.
As I began to look into homoeopathy, I first prescribed Ipecac for the vomiting which sometimes attended these fevers, one drop of the tincture in a glass of water, and giving a teaspoonful from the glass for a dose. For watery diarrhoeas I gave Fowler's solution of Arsenic in the same manner, and in both instances generally with very satisfactory results.
If of late various things, chiefly the mining depression, have made my fortunes all to the bad, I am no man to whine at the inevitable. I can take my ipecac along with the next man! There were few men in the old days in Phoenix, or, indeed, the entire Territory, who did not drink liquor, and lots of it. In fact, it may be said that the entire fabric of the Territory was constructed on liquor.
Everyone can understand that if we give an Allopathic dose of Ipecac to a patient already sick and vomiting, or of Veratrum album to a patient suffering from Asiatic cholera or cholera morbus, we will almost certainly aggravate the disease, perhaps to a fatal extent; for it is the reaction of the vital forces of the system against the new excitement caused by the remedy, which overcomes this new excitement and the diseased action at the same time.
