Nux moschata [Nux-m]

      Dr. Edmund Carleton contended that from its pathogenesis Nux moschata is the one true remedy for the sleeping sickness of South Africa. He would have given the 30th or the 200th potency, but possibly nutmeg tea or the tincture of Nux moschata would act-if there be any action. The nutmeg is an old soporific and so the possible action would be on the lines of similia.
