"Our experience certainly is that ARSENICUM far excels all other drugs in the treatment of idiopathic neuralgia. Such a neuralgia you often meet as a consequence of malaria or influenza but more frequently as a symptom of pure debility."

"In simple, uncomplicated cases of chorea, ARSENICUM is only by far the best remedy."
By Dr. Ringer
Chorea
"ARSENICUM is our most important diuretic. It is suitable in all forms of dropsy, more particularly in dropsy depending upon heart disease and oedema of the lungs. After giving ARSENICUM, a copious diuresis will sometimes set in with astonishing rapidity, after which the dropsical swelling speedily disappears. The result is most doubtful if we have only ascites to contend against, and in as much as the medicine shows its good effects in a few days itself after a few doses have been taken, it is useless to continue it for a longer period in the vain hope of eliciting good effects from it by persisting in its use."
By Dr. Bahr
Dropsy

"In psoriasis, the first influence of ARSENIC is to make the eruption redder and more inflamed. This fact, if not known, would lead to the suspension of the medicine just when it commenced to do good; at the same time, it is unnecessary to give it in doses sufficiently large to do this."
By Dr. Ringer
