Summo cum successu exhibe∣tur contra omnes Epilepsiae species, tam ad digerendam in Epilepti∣cis fluidam illam Pituitam (in istis enim hic Humor peccat) na∣turalem, calorem illorum confor∣tando, & corroborando Cerebrum; quam ad separandos & consu∣mendos in Centro acres aut ma∣lignos Vapores, qui ascendentes in Cerebrum, hunc causantur Mor∣bum in aliis. Valet etiam in Puerorum Epilepsia, quae vitio Stomachi à quadam, vel flatu∣lentia, vel Cibi corruptione, vel Vermibus exagitatis obtingit. Su∣mitur in aqua Peoniae, florum Papaveris sylvestris, aliove ap∣propriato liquore, ante vel post paroxysmum; ita etiam mane jejuno stomacho, & horâ somni. Dosis, à drachma semis ad dra∣chmam unam. Contra Paralysin est efficacissimum; singulare refu∣gium est in Apoplexia, (datum in principio, & reiteratum per in∣tervalla temporis, prout necessi∣tas requirat,) in Convulsionibus & morbis Hystericis. Non mino∣ris efficaciae est in Hypochondria∣cis, aut Melancholia flatulenta; quae variis modis affligere solet, idque pro diversitate Partium, quas Vapores isti maligni impetuosè exagitant. Ʋtlissimum est con∣tra Tremorem membrorum, ex∣ortum ex imbecillitate & relaxa∣tione nervorum, ob senilem aeta∣tem, aut Humores frigidos: in Tabe etiam, & Corporis Consum∣ptione,
à simplici Obstructione tam Mesenterii, quam aliorum Organorum principalium. Colicam passionem, Ventrisque Tormina, praestantissimè sedat.
