At the suggestion of prof. Lhlein's author experimented at the Giessen clinic with Hydrastininum muriaticum. This drug was offered to patients or by mouth in the form of gelatin capsules, the size of a decent pill, containing 0.025 Hydrast. muriat., or under the skin in the form of a sterilized solution containing 0.025-0.1 of this agent. When applying this agent inside or under the skin, the author did not observe any side effects.
