by

Piscidia homeopathy medicine – drug proving symptoms from Encyclopedia of Pure Materia Medica by TF Allen, published in 1874. It has contributions from R Hughes, C Hering, C Dunham, and A Lippe….

Common names: Jamaica dogwood.

Introduction

Piscidia erythrina, L.

Natural order: Leguminosae.

Preparation: Tincture from the bark of the root, obtained while the tree is in flower, before leaf.

Mouth

The bark, on being chewed, gives out an unpleasant acrimony, similar to that of the mezereon.

Sleep

A sleep the most profound that I ever experienced, arrested me so abruptly, that I remained motionless for the whole night, with the uncorked vial in one hand, and the glass out of which I had taken the dose in the other, until after the sun was high above the horizon on the following morning, a space of twelve good hours, when I first returned to consciousness, free from every pain or ache, and without any of those unpleasant sensations which invariably succeed to an overdose of Opium.

Fever

Violent sensation of heat, which gradually increased in intensity (soon); the sensation of burning gradually extended it self to the surface, and while I was considering what antidote I ought to employ, a profuse diaphoresis burst out from every pore.
