Characteristics
Mure proved this plant. The most peculiar symptoms were: Saliva profuse, milky. Ulceration of commissures of lips. Costiveness with red urine. Vertigo after eating. Pain in humerus on lifting anything. Hot arms with cold hands. "Many of the plants of this genus are acrid and caustic in the highest degree. The root of P. scandens, the Herbe du Diable of San Domingo, is a most energetic blistering agent when fresh; so also is that of P. rosea.

In Mure's proving "Aversion to everything" is noted; also "ulceration of commissures of lips," which is an evidence of its acridity.
