"CALC. CARB. in earache: With stitching, throbbing pain, making the child cry out; its symptoms resemble BELLADONNA with the flushing of the pale face,high temperature and the dilated pupils. Where BELLADONNA is insufficient or ineffective, CALC. CARB will go deeper to relieve or cure."

You may go higher and repeat it, if you like, but do not lay blame on me, when the case gets irretrievably spoiled."
"If you have a case of Meniere-s disease, consider CALC. CARB. It is a near specific."
"CALC. CARB. is an excellent remedy for galactorrhoea. It will often modify the lacteal secretion and serve as a preventive of mammary abscess after weaning."
