This a very valuable remedy should be more frequently used. It is indicated in such conditions as are cured by Bryonia and Rhus tox., but its symptoms mark out its own individual cases.

Rheumatic conditions with heart irritation; epistaxis; bloody urine; anxiety and trembling, when there has been a history of diarrhoea. A suddenly checked diarrhoea will be followed by violent cardiac symptoms; it is much like Ledum, Aurum and Kalmia.

In marasmus of children it is a very useful remedy and not unfrequently indicated. The emaciation begins in the lower limbs and gradually spreads upward, so that the face is the last affected; that is the opposite of Lycopodium, Natrum mur. and Psorinum.

It has cured pleurisy after Bryonia, which seemed indicated, had failed. A woman lying in bed with dyspnoea, anxiety, cold sweat and pain in the heart was surrounded by friends to see her die.

It was learned that she had suffered for many months with a rheumatism in one knee, that she had used crutches to get about the house, and that she had recently been speedily cured (?) by a strong liniment only a few days before this attack. Abrot. restored her to health promptly.

It has caused and cured burning ulcerative pains in the stomach with suspicious vomiting.

Metastasis is a marked feature in Abrot. The changing of one so called disease into another always calls attention to Abrotanum. Inflammation of the parotid (mumps) changing to tests or mammae is generally cured by Carbo v. or Pulsatilla, but Abrot, has cured when these remedies have failed.

A suddenly checked diarrhea followed by piles and acute rheumatism, with bleedings, as mentioned above, is further argument in favor of this idea.

The Abrot. patient is sensitive to cold air and cold damp weather. He suffers much from backaches, and his symptoms are worse during the night.

In boys it cures hydrocele.

In infants it cures bleeding from the navel.

The Southern wood (Artemisia Abrotanum, L.) is still cultivated in old gardens; a low shrub about three feet in height, with finely divided leaves of an intensely bitter taste. A tincture is prepared from the chopped and bruised leaves.

The indications of a central disturbance (hyperæmia) of the nervous system, producing anæsthesia arid paralysis, are very marked; this is accompanied by neuralgic pains, which cause restlessness and are relieved by motion.

Abro. / Abbot.

Abrotanum is wrinkled, thin,
From constant drain, his bowels are in.
His stools in undigested plight,
Alternately play loose and tight.
Keen cramping pains his joints beset,
Whereby his limbs contracted get.
His disposition, when a child,
By cruelly, was much defiled.

The Abbot. has Marasmus.

The Abbot, San-jo Sarsa, is a coward in the dark, he owns up to it.

This Abbot, who is inclined to be cruel, is in Arabia, with his lackey man Hyos.
