Whenever a round- or tape-worm is to be attacked, the patient must be starved for at least twelve to twenty-four hours, in order that no food in the intestinal tract may protect the Avorm from the action of the drug. During this time a little milk may be taken, and after a night of fasting, before breakfast, the anthelmintic must be SAval- lowed. Further than this, nearly all of these drugs must be folloAved by purges in order to dislodge the intruder while he is paralyzed and has lost his hold ; and in many instances it is Avell to have a basin of salt and Avater ready, so that Avhen a passage occurs a rectal injection may be given to Avash out any segments of the Avorm Avhich remain behind in the rectum. In the treatment of thread-worms it is necessary to fill the bowel thoroughly Avith soap and water to dislodge the faecal matter and expose the Avorms in the folds of the mucous membrane The drugs AA'hich are used against the round-worm are: Spigelia in the form of the fluid extract, dose 1 drachm (4.0) to a child of two or three years, or 2 drachms (8.0) to an adult, or, better still, the fluid extract of spigelia and senna, dose 2 to 3 drachms (8.0-12.0). given in divided doses, to a child ; oil of chenopodium, dose 5 to 20 drops (0.3-1.3) on sugar; santonin, dose ^ to J grain (0.016-0.025) to a child, in the form of troche, made by u^iy\g the crystals, or as much as 2 to 4 grains (0.1-0.2) to an adult. (See Santonin.) Brayera, or kooso, is given for the removal of the same Avorm in the form of an infusion, which is made by adding J ounce (16.0) of the poAvdered leaves to 1 pint (500 cc.) of AA-ater and mucilage of acacia, one-half of each. This may be taken at one dose, or the fluid extract may be given in the dose of i ounce (16.0) to an adult. 664 DISEASES. Koosin may be given in 40-grain (2.65) doses in capsule to adults, but it should not be used against worms in pregnant women, as it may cause abortion. Unless the spigelia is used with senna, it should always be followed after from two to four hours by a full dose of castor oil or a saline purgative to sweep out the worm, and the same rule applies to all the drugs mentioned above. The most efficient remedy against the tape-worm is pelletierine, the active principle of pomegranate, dose 1 to 2 grains (0.05-0.1) in capsules; or pepo, or pumpkin-seeds (2 ounces [64.0]), may be resorted to when deprived of their outer coating and rubbed into a paste with sugar. Almost, if not quite, as valuable a remedy is male fern, or Filix mas, or, as it is officially called, Aspidium. Used in the form of the oleoresin (Oleoresina Asjndii), in the dose of J to 1 drachm (2.0-4.0) to an adult, it should be followed in three or four hours by a calomel purge, aided by a saline. Either the calomel or the increased amount of bile which is present is apparently peculiarly abhorrent to the tape-worm, and its free excretion should folloAv the use of all the drugs just named. Aspidium should not be followed by castor or other oils, as they increase the absorbability of the drug, and so tend to develop poisonous symptoms. By far the most useful remedy for seat-worms is quassia used by injection. 1 to 2 ounces (32.0-64.0) of powdered quassia or quassia chips may be made into a decoction with a pint (500 cc.) of Avater, and half of this injected into the rectum after it has been well cleansed with soap and water. The quassia injection should be retained in the bowel for some minutes, and in children this may be accomplished by pressing upon the anal opening the ball of the thumb covered by a pad formed from a small folded towel. If this treatment fails to bring away all the worms in three or four trials, either there are none present or the bowel is not thoroughly invaded by the injection. In some cases the worms infest the colon, and large injections sent high up into the bowel are necessary.
