Under its synonym of Aseptol upon page 506, the results of Annessens' experience of this new and remarkable antiseptic are briefly narrated. It may be mentioned that it is a syrupy rose-coloured volatile liquid, with a strong odour, possessing no corrosive or irritant action, and has been given internally in dram doses, freely diluted in sweetened water. 664 NON-OFFICIAL REMEDIES. Terebene. A powerful antiseptic, disinfecting, and deodorising liquid, with an agreeable balsamic odour, prepared by the action of sulphuric acid on turpentine and subsequent distillation. It is used when mixed with thymol and carbolic acid in equal proportions as an inhalation (^ dram to 1 pint of hot water) in jfhthuis or sprinkled over the wool in an antiseptic respirator. Internally it may be given with advantage in 6 minim doses as an int^tinal disinfectant, and as an astringent in the haemorrhage of phthisis, and in dysentery. The cheap disin- fectant liquor sold under this name is a valuable deodoriser for the sick room. Thallin. Is a synthetically prepared basic substance found by Skraup to form soluble tiu*trates and sulphates which strike a deep emerald-green colour with perchloride of iron, and hence its name. It has been proved by Jaksch, Alexander, Ewald, and others to possess marked antipyretic properties resembling in some respects quinine, antipyrin, and kalrin, when given in doses of 2 to 5 grs. It prepuces no unpleasant after-effects, and causes a fall of temperature nearly as rapid as antipyrin — i.e., in about 3 hours ; but the fall lasts a much shorter time — generally about 5 hours, while the effects of antipyrin may last twice this period. The sharpness of the fall and the early ascent ushered in, often by rigors, are somewhat characteristic of thallin. It appears to possess only slight depressing effect upon the heart, and often copious sweating follows its use, though this cannot be regarded as an explanation of its temperature reducing properties, since sometimes it produces a marked fall without any action of the skin. In typhoid fever, in phthisis, and in tuberculosis, as is the case with anti- pyrin, the best results have been obtained. Dujardin-Beaumetz found that thallin causes a destruction of the red blood cor- puscles, and he has been corroborated in this by other observers, who believe that antipyrin solely acts like resorcin upon the heat centres, not interfering with the composition of the blood in any way. Thallin may be found by further observations to possess superior powers as an antipyretic, but at present it offers no advantages over antipyrin. It may be given in doses of 5 grains every 5 hours. Theine. The alkaloid of tea (^Thea sinensis) is identical with Caffeine (which see page 343). Dose--2 to 6 grs., in a mixture or pill. Mate, or Paraguay Tea. -ilex mate or ilex par aguarimuis 'J^nd other species of ilex yield about J per cent, of caffeine. NON-OFFICIAL REMEDIES. 566 Ehat, Cafta, or Arabian Tea. Catha edtdis is need by the Arabs, who generally chew it to produce a form of very mUd intoxication or sensation of cheerfalness and hilarity, accompanied with great watchfulness and wakefulness. Its actiye principle is identical with theine or caffeine. Therpylene Hydras. M. Boursier has discovered a substance by distilling the young buds of various species of pine« which he designates as Hydrate of Therpylene. It resembles turpentine, and is saturated with oxygen, and is rich in ozone. Labb^ has tried it therapeutically, and finds it to be a poweiful antiseptic, disinfectant, and deodoriser, which can be used with advantage as a surgical dressing to fresh mounds and ulcers, or as an application to destroy the fetor caused by the decomposition of the false membrane in diphtheria or as a disinfecting spray in the sick room. (See page 560.) Tonga. A preparation consisting of chopped stalks and small quan- tities of the leaves and inner bark of some plants imported from Fiji; believed to be derived from Bhaphidophora vitiensis or Epipremnum miraJnle, and Premna taitetisis. From these a liquid is prepared, whose properties have been found to be decidedly antineuralgic. flinger and Murrell investigated the drug, and found it to speedily cure 6 out of 8 cases of neuralgia in which they tried it. Dose— Of the liquid tonga, 1 dr. 3 times a day. Trandescantia. Trandesoantia ereota is a Mexican plant used by the natives to stop bleedings from wounds. It is now cultivated at Ver- sailles, and, according to the " Year- Book of Pharmacy," it is stated to possess very valuable styptic properties, and to be even superior in this respect to ferric chloride. If so, we shall soon hear more about it. Traumaticine. This is the name given to a solution of 1 part of gutta-percha tissue in 10 of chloroform, re-introduced by Auspitz for the treatment of skin affections. It was used by Graves, of Dublin, 30 years ago in psoriasis and impetigo. It forms on drying an unirritatlng, adhesive, permanent, non-contractile, flexible film, superior to gelatine and collodion (because it does not pucker up the skin). 666 NON-OFFICIAL REMBDIBfi. It affords an excellent basis for the application of chrjso- phanic acid to psoriasis^ the acid being first dissolved by the chloroform, the tissue added, and the resulting liquid applied with a brush. (See pages 396 and under Gelatine, page 529). Trimethylamine. (See Propylamine, page 555.) Triticum Bepens. (Couch Grass.) This common grass has been in the hands of some most successfully used in ch/ronic bladder ailments. It is a feeble diuretic, and appears (after being tried by some surgeons for a considerable namber of years) to possess the virtues claimed for the stigmata of maize. It has fallen into disuse, because the dried grass appears to be almost inert. It is th& fresh rhizome which should be always used, 2 ozs. boiled in 1 mnt water for hidf an hour, of which a wine-glassful shouIoTbe taken every 4 or 6 hours. Turpentine— Ohian. (See page 515.) Ustila^O Maydis. (Corn Smut or Corn Ergot.) XJ.S.P. The fungus which attacks maize, causing Irregular swellings on the young ears, from the size of a pea to that of a festal head. The blackish dusty powder in the interior is the part employed. It appears to act like ergot, and it keeps better, and is less expensive, and is coming into favour in America and Canada. Brunton thinks it contains probably the same alkaloid as ergot. It appears, however, to differ from ergot in not producing prolonged contraction of the uterus, but in in- creasing mark^y the rhythmic contractions and relaxations, hence it is more valuable during labour than after (Hubbard). Dose — 1 dr. of the liquid extract (1 to 1). • Urethan (Carbaminic Ether), Or more correctly the ethyl ether of carbaminic acid, is a substance in soluble white inodorous crystals. It is prepared synthetically, and Jaksch.has found it to be a prompt hypnotic not followed by any objectionable after consequences. Re- freshing sleep was generally induced by about 8 grs. given at bed-time, and repeated in two hours, and sometimes again in two hours more if the effect was not produced. Verbascum Thapsus. (The Mullein Plant) Attention has been drawn to the great usefulness of this plant as a potent remedy fbr increasing the weight in pul- NON-OFFICIAL REMEDIES. 667 monary and other wasting diseases by Qainlan, who has care- fully watched its weight-increasing properties in phthisis. In Ireland its virtues have been long appreciated by the poorer classes in pulmonary complaints, and the original method of administration, which is that recommended by Quinlan, is to boil 4 ozs. of the fresh leaves, or a corresponding quantity of the dry, for 10 minutes in a pint of fresh milk from the cow, to be drunk whilst still warm. This dose should be taken when possible 3 times a day. It appears to act like Cod Liver Oil, and it also possesses expectorant properties. The virtue of three pints daily of good milk must very substantially augment the therapeutic action of the mullein plant. The same authority has, however, experimented with this remedy, with and without milk, and is satisfied of its power ovd^the nutrition of the body when given alone, as in the form of ?uccus. The taste of the plant is objectionable, and milk consider- ably masks it. The succus can be taken in porter. The young plants resemble those of digitalis in appearance. Belief to bronchial asthma and to the hacking cough of phthisis has been obtained by smoking the leaves. Vibumuni Opulus. (The Snow Ball Tree.) The dried leaves of this tree were found by Jacubovsky to relieve angina pectoris, Becently from Odessa comes the report of Dr. Manguby, who has tried the dried berries with very decided success in a case which resisted a catalogue of remedies, but which does not appear to have been treated with amyl or the nitrites. He prepares an infusion of two table- spoonfuls of the berries in water, which he causes to be administered in divided doses during the 24 hours. A fluid extract has been used in America with considerable benefit in dysmenorrhoea, and as a uterine sedative in menorrhagia and threatened abortion. Viburnum Prunifolium. (Black Haw.) U.S.P. The bark of this tree is in great repute in America; it possesses properties closely allied to the previous remedy, though there is no published account of its being used in angina pectoris. The liquid extract in one dram doses is given in dysmejiorrhoeay and as a uterine sedative to prevent con- traction of the uterus in the early months of pregnancy. Viscum Album. (TheTSilMitletoe — See page 546.) 668 NON-OFFICIAL REMEDIES. Warburg's Tincture. (Tinctiira Pyrexialia.) A preparation which has gained for itself a very high repu- tation in the treatment of pyrexia; it is prepared from a formula published in the •' Lancet" of Nov. 13th, 1876. It is undoubtedhr of greatest value in malaria and other fevers, and in malaridt neuralgia. It is administered in a tablespoonfol dose, after the bowels have been thoroughly emptied ; no drink being permitted ; it is repeated again in 3 hours, after which profuse aromatic perspiration and a marked faXL of temperature set in, with rapid convalescence. It is very useful in several forms of collapse. Its power does not appear to lie in its quinine, camphor, aloes, rhubarb, or opium, but in some of the aromatic plants contained in it. Wintergreen.
