Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Practitioner, Vol. 3: A Monthly Journal, Therapeutics, July to December The remedies which are especially efficacious in the treatment of asthma are the vascular and cardiac agents; i.e. those which act either on the heart or on the muscular coat of the vessels; and among them we find three which have been principally applied to the treatment of this disease - belladonna, datura, and hyoseyamus. Belladonna causes contraction of the muscular fibres of the arteries in such a way as to stimulate the flow of blood in the organs, and assist the functions of the latter, while other vascular remedies, which also affect the muscular coats of the vessels, act in a different manner; e.g. nicotine produces a lasting spasm, which only gives place to dilatation when the muscle has become tired out. Bromide of potassium causes a permanent contraction, and produces anæmia of the organs, while belladonna produces the opposite state - active congestion.
