| Dosage |
- Frequent doses are generally recommended
in nausea with tendency to vomit in pregnancy,
in sea-sickness, in inflammation of the
appendix, inflammation of the gallbladder,
intestinal cramps, weakness of the conduction,
gastric catarrh of sucklings, etc., at
the rate of 10-15 drops (possibly in a
little warm water or undiluted, e.g. on
the hand when driving) every 5-10 minutes.
Unpleasant effects are not to be feared
as the remedy is not harmful to the liver
but, on the contrary, acts as its stimulant.
At the most vomiting might increase in
the beginning, after absorption of toxicant
food. From a biological view-points this
reaction is not untoward.
