      MEADOW PARSNIP-GOLDEN ALEXANDERS.

Introduction

      Zizia, the old name for this common weed, and the one Allen advises being retained, was first proved by Dr. E. E. Marcy, in 1855.

Symptoms

      Perhaps the most prominent use for this remedy is in chorea (31) and epilepsy, with spasmodic movements and twitchings of the muscles of the face and extremities (193), with aggravation at night during sleep.

Allen speaks of it for intermittent neuralgia of the l. ovary (147).

Millspaugh, who took in all about 10 minims, found that the longest lasting sensation was as if the tongue had been scalded (140) with hot tea.
