COMMENTS-J.
H.
Schultze, when suf fering from toothache, took some of the Staphysagria seed in his
mouth, but it gave him such a violent exacerbation that he thought he should go mad.
Brunton noted that the seed was called “an exterminator of vermin” by the Greeks and as such it enters into
the composition of an ointment (unguentum pediculosum).
This last is the only use of Staph, known to orthodox
medicine.
Teste remarked that Staph., like Cocc., is used in some countries for the purpose of stupefying fish.
Teste
found Staph.
6c, like Cocc., useful as a remedy for seasickness.
To be successful, Staph, had to be taken at
the moment when dizziness and nausea commenced, before vomiting set in and it always helped “nervous
persons, not over fat and disposed to sadness.”
Staph, produced in Teste a “long lasting vertigo, accompanied by continued nausea as in sea-sickness” and
“vertigo, which ceases on rapidly turning round on one’s heel.”
This corresponds with one of Hahne mann’s symptoms, “wheeling vertigo, especially while sitting, better by
walking about in a circle.”
It is noteworthy that Staph, and Cocc are both head remedies and both effec tive against head lice.
Both also
affect the genitals, Staph, more so, and are remedies for crab lice.
An application of one part a dilution of the tincture to four parts water will destroy the parasites, although
concurrent internal treatment (probably with a dilution of the same rem edy) increases success.
In Teste’s experience, Staph, was no less effective in nausea during pregnancy than nausea caused by
seasickness.
