General [General]
Then there are the ascarides, small dark or red worms, these sometimes exist in immense quantities, and hundreds are often voided at a time.
REMEDIES: Cina, Digitalis, Stramonium Sulphur and Arsenicum.
Cina [Cina]
Cina, symptoms similar to those indicating its use in Lumbrici.
Dose. The same as above stated.
Digitalis [Dig]
Digitalis, may be given if the animal wastes away, and there is diarrhoea.
Dose. Six drops twice a day.
Stramonium [Stram]
Stramonium, is useful if the horse rubs himself behind.
Dose. The same as of Digitalis.
Conclusion [Conclusion]
There are several other varieties of worms; but the symptoms are too complicated to be treated from any directions that can be given; but generally Cina and Sulphur will be found beneficial. I have also seen great improvement from a dose or two of Arsenicum.
