Whenever a round-, hook-, 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 worm 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 swal- lowed. In addition, nearly all of these drugs must be followed by purges in order to dislodge the intruder while he is paralyzed and has lost his hold; and in many instances it is well to have a basin of salt and water ready, so that when a passage occurs a rectal injection may be given to wash out the worm in the rectum. In the treatment of thread-worms it is necessary to fill the bowel thoroughly with soap and water to dislodge the fecal matter and expose the worms in the folds of the mucous membrane. WORMS 931 The drugs which are used against the round-worm are : spigelia in the form of the fluidextract, 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; santonin, dose \ to \ grain (0.015-0.03) to a child in the form of a troche, made by using the crystals, or as much as 2 to 4 grains (0.12-0.25) to an adult. (See Santonin.) 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. Brayera, or kooso, is given for the removal of the tape-worm in the form of an infusion, which is made by adding \ ounce (16.0) of the powdered leaves to 1 pint (480 mils.) of water and mucilage of acacia, one-half of each. This may be taken at one dose, or the fluidextract may be given in the dose of \ ounce (15.0) to an adult. Koosin may be given in 40-grain (2.60) doses in capsule to adults, but it should not be used against worms in pregnant women, as it may cause abortion. The most efficient remedy against the tape-worm is pelletierine, the active principle of pomegranate, dose 3 to 5 grains (0.20-0.30) in capsule; or pepo, or pumpkin-seeds (2 ounces [60.0]), 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 Aspidii), in the dose of J to 1 drachm (2.0-4.0) to an adult, it should be followed in three or fours 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 flow should be made to follow 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 symptoms of poisoning. For the removal of Uncinaria,' thymol in the dose of 2 to 4 grains (0.12-0.25) or more may be given in capsule once a day and followed by a purge. (See Thymol.) By far the most useful remedy for seat-worms is quassia used by injection. One to 2 ounces (30.0-60.0) of powdered quassia or quassia chips may be made into a decoction with a pint (480 mils.) of water, 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 aided 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 the worms in three or four trials, either there are none present or the bowel was 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. INDEX OF DKUGS AND EEMEDIAL MEASURES.
