Indicated chiefly in coughs and in intermittent fever, occurring in old people or in persons of lax fibre and low vitality who take cold easily and do not react readily.
Indicated in a wide range of diseases affecting the respiratory and intestinal mucous membrane, glandular system and skin, characterized by great sensitiveness to draught, easy perspiration and ready suppuration of the affected parts. In scrofulous affections, including those of the eye and ear; sore throat; tonsillitis on the point of suppuration; cough, including the late stages of bronchitis and pneumonia; suppurative affections of the skin, as felons; hip-joint disease with suppuration; bad-smelling eruptions, etc.
Indicated in catarrhal affections of the respiratory tract; nasal catarrh with pain over the root of the nose; laryngitis, croup, oedema of glottis; even in the cough of phthisis and pneumonia; in headaches from cold and in neuralgic pain in the head. Also in sore throats.

Indicated in conditions due to imperfect assimilation of food and to innutrition. Frequently employed during the development of suppurative processes, over which it has a marked influence, both in preventing suppuration and in controlling excessive pus-formation and its consequences. It is an antipsoric of far-reaching power, and as such often proves of great efficacy in conditions which seem beyond its range of action, as epilepsy. Its chief sphere of usefulness is in suppurative processes, as abscesses, joint-disease, carbuncle; scrofulous affections of the bone, rachitis, Pott?s disease, necrosis, etc.; glandular affections; eczema and eruptions inclined to ulcerate; old, offensive catarrhs; all sorts of abscesses, as tonsilitis and hepatic abscesses; cough of phthisis, with very fetid expectoration; bronchorrhoea, especially of old people.
