Pyrogenium (HMT)

📖 Pyrogenium (HMT) Introduction

Pyrogenium is prepared from the putrid matter obtained from decomposed meat, which is deadly poisonous. On ingesting decomposed meat, either a person catches high fever, becomes disorientated and then dies, or keeps suffering from its ill effects for a long time. Pyrogenium has been so frequently referred to in this book that the reader may think that he has alr eady read about it. Here, it is described briefly. In a Pyrogenium patient, the disc harges are extremely foul and poisonous, producing high fever, even death. It is a very powerful panacea for puerperal sepsis i.e. the fever developing after childbirth due to the infection and putrefaction of the retained placental contents in the uterus. It is extremely effective in curing this dreadful and potentially fatal condition. If Sulphur 200 is used in combination with Pyrogenium 200, it works even better. Like Arsenic, it can also be of use in the treatment of influenza complicated by severe weakness and restlessness . Arsenic and Pyrogenium given together work much better in invigorating the weakness. The same prescr iption stands high in the treatment of diarrhoea and dysentery asso ciated with foul smell . All sorts of catarrhal fevers associated with chills, putrefaction and restlessness can be satisfactorily treated with Pyrogenium, Bacillinum and Natrum Mur. In Pyrogenium, like Phosphorus, there is intense thirst for cold water. The cold water soon beco mes warm inside the stomach and induces vomiting. The Pyrogenium pa tient is very cold deep down to the bones, yet likes to drink cold water. In this condition, Pyrogenium should be mixed with Phosphorus. Pyrogenium is also useful in combating bad breath . If the patient also feels very cold, then Psorinum should be added to Pyrogenium. I have found the combination of Pyrogenium 200 and Typhoidinum 200 very useful in the treatment of all typhoid patients. My late father also used Pyrogenium in the treatment of typhoid. Most probably it is he who invented this particular combination. In addition to Pyrogenium and Typhoidinum, Kali Phos 6X and Ferrum Phos 6X should be given seven to eight times a day. If a patient passes odorous stools, then Baptisia 30 should also be included, seven to eight times a day. Pyrogenium is also effective against malaria, which is untreatable with common remedies. The patient feels severe chills and is restless like Arsenic and the discharges are extremely foul smelling. In cattle also, Pyrogenium 200 and Sulphur 200 are equally effective in the treatment of puerperal fever following retention of the placenta and its infection. Pyrogenium is also useful in the treatment of inflammation of the kidneys (nephritis). Once it becomes known that the patient had previously suffered from puerperal fever, causing damage to the kidneys, Pyrogenium will be found very effective. Another symptom of Pyrogenium is th at in spite of the high fever, the pulse rate is relatively slow. This conf licting type of heart rate is typical of Pyrogenium. If the symptoms of Pyrogenium al ready mentioned are present, then Pyrogenium may be useful in the treatment of all kinds of skin diseases of the patient. Pyrogenium being basically related to the venous blood, the patient may develop piles, which can become infected and then putrefied. Pyr ogenium is also useful in the treatment of a resistant type of offensive vomiting. If the constitutional symptoms of Pyr ogenium are present, then broncho- pneumonia and other infec tions of the lungs can also be satisfactorily treated with it.
