Potency and Repetition
"We are advised by the neurologist that any badly shocked case should be put on 2 to 4 drams of paraldehyde right away in order to induce 4 to 8 hours sleep and that at the end of that time, the patient will be perfectly alright. But I am quite sure you will get much better results by giving ACONITE and the patients will get up feeling much better than they would after paraldehyde. I would give a 200 every 15 minutes."
By Dr. D.M.Borland, M.B.,Ch.B.
