Characteristics
On the analogy of the action of Thyroidin in myxœdema, Ooph. has been used with much success in cases of suffering following excision of the ovaries, and for the climacteric sufferings of women. I have had good results with it in such cases in the lower triturations. It has been suggested as a remedy in ovarian cysts. E. Saalfeld (quoted H. W., xxxii. 296), in view of Landau's observations on the effect of Ooph. on the nervous sufferings of women at the climacteric, gave Ooph. to women suffering from acne rosacea and other skin disorders of the climacteric. A woman, 20, after double oophorectomy had lichen-like eczema. This was greatly relieved by Ooph. as well as the accompanying nervous symptoms and adiposity. He obtained good results also in some non-climacteric cases as: (1) Acne and seborrhœa in chlorotic women. (2) A case of prurigo which had lasted from childhood in a woman of 26. In this case the itching was > for a short time after the period. This > during menses may prove a keynote, and relates the remedy to Zinc.
Clinical Tips & Practitioner Insights
"The condition which most frequently calls for OPIUM is paralytic ileus after an abdominal section. There is a loop of bowel which is completely paralysed, accompanied by reversed peristalsis and the pumping of bile back into the stomach. The patient is horribly sick and brings up masses of bile stained, rather foul smelling vomit and has an extreme sensation of abdominal distension. I think that is the commonest condition in which OPIUM is most useful. Incidentally, it is very interesting that in the majority of cases in which you get a paralytic ileus, you find there is a history that OPIUM or one of its derivatives has been given before or after operation."
