Common Diseases of Farm Animals To this must follow digitalis, nitre, tartar emetic, and aloes, and to these must be added a powerful blister. The Dog Kohuhorn mentions a death from what might be called chronic digitalis poisoning. Anomalies and Curiosities of Medicine In such cases it is necessary to gain time until digitalis and alcoholics can unfold their action, and here nitrite of amyl stands pre-eminent. Scientific American Supplement, No. 299, September 24, 1881 Among other popular remedies were beetroot, box leaves, cabbage, cucumbers, black currants, digitalis, and euphorbia. The Folk-lore of Plants Heart tonics and stimulants such as digitalis, strychnine and alcohol should be administered when the pulse beats weaken. Common Diseases of Farm Animals More blood must be subtracted, a seton inserted, the bowels opened with Epsom salts, and the digitalis, nitre, and James's powder given more frequently and in larger doses than before. The Dog Caffeine, on the other hand, like digitalis, produces a high arterial tension, and slows the heart beat. Hygienic Physiology : with Special Reference to the Use of Alcoholic Drinks and Narcotics This is just one expression of the folly which surrounded the use of digitalis at the time of its discovery. Scientific American Supplement, No. 299, September 24, 1881 In France, the digitalis supplies her with gloves, and in days gone by the Convallaria polygonatum was the "Lady's seal." The Folk-lore of Plants Calomel, aloes, and digitalis are recommended when the effusion period approaches in order to increase the elimination of fluid, and lessen its entrance into the body cavity. Common Diseases of Farm Animals There may generally be added to them digitalis, James's powder, and nitre, made into balls with palm oil and a little linseed meal.

Scientific American Supplement, No. 299, September 24, 1881 The rest of my time I spend on the flat of my back, eating, drinking, and doing absolutely nothing besides, except taking iron and digitalis. Life and Letters of Thomas Henry Huxley — Volume 3 Some one who knew the weakness of Marchant first placed digitalis in his tea. The Treasure-Train Lotions of corrosive sublimate, decoction of bark, infusion of digitalis or tobacco, effected some little good; but the persevering use of the iodine of potassium, purgatives, and the abstraction of blood very generally succeeded. The Dog Inevitably they come to dislike the side-effects of the various medications their medical doctor has put them on and they begin to wean themselves off of heart-stimulating poisons like digitalis. How and When to Be Your Own Doctor Temporary relief had been several times afforded by infusion of digitalis. Scientific American Supplement, No. 299, September 24, 1881 The stimulating effect on heart and circulation produced by digitalis is the first action of a highly poisonous drug; the second lasting effect is weakening and paralyzing. Nature Cure If there is marked advanced interstitial nephritis, digitalis may not work satisfactorily and must be used with caution. Disturbances of the Heart An aloetic physic-ball, however, was given every fifth day, and a ball, composed of tartrate of iron, digitalis, nitre, and antimonial powder, on every intermediate morning and night. The Dog He was on digitalis and several other heart medications plus diuretics, but in no way was his condition under control. How and When to Be Your Own Doctor Do digitalis and aconite act in the same manner? Scientific American Supplement, No. 299, September 24, 1881 "Oh, I take hydrochloric acid, sulphuric acid, and strychnine through the day, and digitalis and potassium bromide at night." To-morrow? If, on the other hand, a large part of the kidney trouble is due to the passive congestion caused by circulatory weakness, digitalis will be valuable.

Disturbances of the Heart Again have recourse to the antimony, digitalis, and nitre. 8th'. The Dog A medicine consisting of assimilable substances being then simply unwholesome food, we understand what is meant by those cumulative effects of such remedies often observed, as in the case of digitalis and strychnia. Medical Essays, 1842-1882 They also found that when digitalis is given by the mouth, the electrocardiograph showed that its full activity was not reached until from thirty-six to forty-eight hours after it had been taken. Disturbances of the Heart He bled me, ordered me to keep my bed, and to continue the digitalis. My Ten Years' Imprisonment Although a patient with auricular fibrillation may have been incapacitated by this heart activity, he may not yet have dilated ventricles, and the digitalis need perhaps not be long continued. Disturbances of the Heart Give daily a ball consisting of tonic and physic mist., with powdered digitalis and tartrate of iron. The Dog It would seem to be a positive indication for digitalis, and good-sized doses of digitalis given correctly, provided always that the preparation of the drug used is active, are good and, many times, efficient treatment. Disturbances of the Heart In this condition digitalis would not work so well and might do harm. Disturbances of the Heart If the left ventricle becomes still weaker and shows signs of serious weakness, or if there is actual dilatation, the question of whether or not digitalis should be used is a subject for careful decision. Disturbances of the Heart It should also be remembered that, if the patient is receiving digitalis in good dosage for broken compensation, tachycardia may be caused by an overaction of the digitalis. Disturbances of the Heart Give daily a ball of tartrate of iron, digitalis, ginger, and a grain of calomel. 22'd'. The Dog Therefore when nitroglycerin is indicated to lower blood pressure, digitalis is not usually indicated; when digitalis is indicated to aid the heart, nitroglycerin is generally not indicated. Disturbances of the Heart This is simply a question of muscle; the part that has the greatest amount of muscle will receive the greatest benefit from digitalis, and the parts that have the least, the least benefit. Disturbances of the Heart Another valuable activity of digitalis is in slowing the heart by action on the pneumogastric nerves. Disturbances of the Heart Small doses of digitalis are sufficient in these early cases. Disturbances of the Heart An infusion of digitalis, with twenty times the quantity of tepid water, was employed as a collyrium, and an aloetic ball administered. The Dog Sometimes the diastolic pressure is high and the systolic low and the pressure pulse small because of heart insufficiency; such a condition is often improved by digitalis. Disturbances of the Heart Whether digitalis shall be given at all, or how large the dose shall be depends on whether or not the patient has been taking digitalis in large quantities. Disturbances of the Heart Digitalinum, one of the active principles of digitalis, is not very satisfactory. Disturbances of the Heart The condition may be stopped by relieving the heart and circulation of all possible toxins and irritants, and by the administration of digitalis. Disturbances of the Heart While many patients with ordinary dosage of digitalis may take the drug for months and years without ever showing cumulative action, other patients show this effect quickly. Disturbances of the Heart Strophanthus: Strophanthus cannot be compared with digitalis, except when the glucosid, strophanthin, is administered subcutaneously or intravenously. Disturbances of the Heart If the circulation is poor, digitalis in small doses may be needed, either 5 drops of an active tincture twice a day, or 8 or 10 drops once a day. Disturbances of the Heart If digitalis is not indicated, strophanthus sometimes is valuable. Disturbances of the Heart If the patient is in a momentary serious condition and liable to die of heart failure, it is doubtful if digitalis pushed at that time will be of benefit. Disturbances of the Heart Sometimes, when the heart has not been injured by prolonged fever, digitalis in small doses may slow the heart and act for good. Disturbances of the Heart Consequently the dose of digitalis must be small. Disturbances of the Heart If digitalis is administered, it will act as a diuretic; if caffein is deemed advisable, that will act as a diuretic. Disturbances of the Heart In other words, auricular fibrillation added to these conditions is serious, but still, many times a patient may be greatly improved by rest, digitalis, careful diet, proper care of the bowels, etc. Disturbances of the Heart On the other hand, if, after consultation, it is deemed advisable to give half a fluidram or more of digitalis at once, it is justifiable. Disturbances of the Heart The treatment is rest in bed and digitalis, but White found that in only four patients out of fifty-three so treated was the alternating pulse either "diminished or banished." Disturbances of the Heart Sometimes one good-sized dose of digitalis may be of benefit, but it is often disappointing, and unless there is a valvular lesion with signs of broken compensation, it is rarely indicated. Disturbances of the Heart In such cases one cannot tell without trying whether digitalis will be of benefit or will cause more discomfort. Disturbances of the Heart This lesion of the heart is always benefited by digitalis, but the continuance of the improvement and its amount depend, of course, on the cause of the dilatation of the ventricle. Disturbances of the Heart If on account of some heart strain or some unaccountable cause the fibrillation recurs, he of course must again receive the digitalis. Disturbances of the Heart A special treatment of the heart, if any is needed, would probably not be indicated unless there was associated tricuspid insufficiency, when digitalis might be used. Disturbances of the Heart It probably should not be given if the patient has previously had good dosage of digitalis. Disturbances of the Heart In these cases of cardiac weakness, with or without dropsy, unless the diastolic pressure is very high, digitalis is valuable. Disturbances of the Heart Occasionally the pulse rate may be much slower, if the heart is under the influence of digitalis. Disturbances of the Heart Digitalis would seem almost invariably contraindicated, although it is of value in extrasystoles without heartblock, or in conditions which are not Stokes-Adams disease; but if this disease was considered present, digitalis would probably do harm. Disturbances of the Heart If digitalis does not cure the irregularity, the condition has been termed the "absolutely irregular heart." Disturbances of the Heart He still further advises in auricular fibrillation an injection of atropin before digitalis has been administered, and another after digitalis is thoroughly acting. Disturbances of the Heart Strychnin may also be given, and digitalis, hypodermically, if it seems indicated. Disturbances of the Heart In the condition described, however, reliance should be placed on digitalis. Disturbances of the Heart Under this treatment of digitalis, rest and regulated diet, a dilated left ventricle with a systolic mitral blow often becomes contracted and this regurgitation disappears. Disturbances of the Heart It is quite possible that the difference between digitalis success and digitalis nonsuccess or harm may be as to whether or not a myocarditis is present. Disturbances of the Heart The action of digitalis in slowing the heart, giving it a longer rest, and preventing it from acting irregularly is of great value. Disturbances of the Heart Caffein is indicated if digitalis is contraindicated or does not act satisfactorily, and the patient is not nervously excited, but perhaps is stupid or apathetic, and also when diuresis is desired. Disturbances of the Heart If the right ventricle dilates, digitalis may be of benefit. Disturbances of the Heart The amount of digitalis that is advisable has been frequently discussed. Disturbances of the Heart This feature of digitalis action in arteriosclerosis renders its use sometimes a question of careful decision. Disturbances of the Heart Digitol is a fat-free tincture of digitalis which is physiologically standardized and which bears on each package the date of manufacture. Disturbances of the Heart Digitoxin does not represent the whole value of digitalis, and in broken compensation digitalis itself, or some preparation embodying the majority of its activities, should be given. Disturbances of the Heart Whether digitalis should be used when there is considered to be much myocardial degeneration is a question for individualization. Disturbances of the Heart The patients with a large cardiac factor are the ones who may be more improved by the digitalis treatment than those in whom the fibrillation is caused by vagus disturbance. Disturbances of the Heart Strychnin is indicated when the heart is acting sluggishly and the contractions seem incomplete, and when digitalis either is not indicated or is not acting perfectly. Disturbances of the Heart In many instances in which digitalis is contraindicated, strychnin is of marked value. Disturbances of the Heart On the other hand, if the heart pangs or heart aches and the sluggish circulation are due to myocardial weakness without much actual degeneration, digitalis may be of marked benefit. Disturbances of the Heart There is no drug that can take the place of digitalis in loss of compensation in chronic valvular disease. Disturbances of the Heart While large doses of digitalis are advised, and large doses are given as soon as a patient with auricular fibrillation comes under treatment, such large dosage is dangerous practice. Disturbances of the Heart In sudden cardiac insufficiency, provided digitalis has not been given in large doses a short time before, strophanthin may be given intravenously once or at most twice at twenty-four-hour intervals. Disturbances of the Heart Unfortunately, during fever processes, digitalis in ordinary doses rarely slows the heart; and while it might slow the heart if given in large doses, it would also cause too powerful contractions of the ventricles. Disturbances of the Heart The treatment is principally rest and digitalis, and the recovery of compensation is often almost phenomenal. Disturbances of the Heart Strophanthus acted on this center only moderately, and digitalis very slightly, if at all. Disturbances of the Heart The preparation selected must be the best obtainable, but the exact dosage of any preparation can be determined only by its effect, as all preparations of digitalis deteriorate sooner or later. Disturbances of the Heart If the sickness preceding the pericarditis was not a long fever, and the heart muscle is considered in good condition, digitalis in small doses may be the best possible diuretic. Disturbances of the Heart The dose of digitalis under such a condition should not be large. Disturbances of the Heart If the patient is sufficiently ill to require the best action of digitalis, an active preparation should be obtained. Disturbances of the Heart It was long supposed that the infusion presented activities which could not be furnished by the tincture of digitalis. Disturbances of the Heart It should be emphasized that the proper dose of digitalis is enough to do the work. Disturbances of the Heart Digitoxin, another active principle of digitalis, has been declared by some investigators to be harmful, also to be liable to cause serious disturbance of a damaged heart. Disturbances of the Heart Such symptoms require that digitalis be immediately stopped. Disturbances of the Heart The treatment of such an undesired behavior of digitalis is, of course, to stop the drug immediately, give saline laxatives, hot sponging or hot baths, nitroglycerin and perhaps alcohol. Disturbances of the Heart Strychnin is then the drug relied on, with such other general medication as is needed, combined with the coincident administration of nitroglycerin, which may also be given in conjunction with digitalis, if deemed advisable. Disturbances of the Heart Also, if there is kidney insufficiency, or if the digitalis diminishes the output of urine, it generally should be stopped. Disturbances of the Heart If there is doubt as to the condition of the cardiac arteries, digitalis should be given in small doses. Disturbances of the Heart It should be recognized that digitalis very frequently not only does not raise blood pressure, but also may lower it; especially in aortic insufficiency and when there is cyanosis. Disturbances of the Heart If a high systolic pressure begins to fall more or less rapidly the heart shows fatigue, and should be stimulated by digitalis or strophanthin. Disturbances of the Heart Even with some forms of angina pectoris, digitalis in small doses may reduce the frequency of the pain. Disturbances of the Heart Various drugs used to stimulate the heart may cause this condition; when digitalis is given and is not indicated or is given in overdosage, these symptoms occur. Disturbances of the Heart When the pulse deficit is zero, the digitalis is stopped. Disturbances of the Heart This decrease of pain following the use of digitalis has in some cases been ascribed to the improvement of coronary circulation and resulting better nutrition of heart muscle. Disturbances of the Heart In the first the heart block is induced by digitalis. Disturbances of the Heart They use this deficit as an aid in deciding when to stop the administration of digitalis. Disturbances of the Heart If more heart pain is caused, the dose of digitalis is too large, or it is contraindicated. Disturbances of the Heart Of course under these conditions the action of digitalis must be carefully watched, and it should not be given too long. Disturbances of the Heart |
