Historical Use of Belladonna in Western Medicine

Quote Paraph: "In the following case complete arrest of the attacks was obtained by zinc, belladonna, and bromide, although bromide alone had previously been ineffectual:— A gentleman, aged 35, whose father and brother were epileptic, had many fits in infancy, but none others till 25. Their recurrence was preceded for a short time by many faint attacks, some of which occurred in warm rooms, etc., but others without exciting cause. He had several fits together every three months while taking bromide only, sometimes by night, sometimes by day, but always during sleep. Each was preceded by a "swallowing sound" in the throat, and the convulsion was severe and epileptiform, lasting a few minutes only, and followed by deep sleep, and this occasionally by mental aberration for several days. His general health was good, his pulse infrequent (54). He was ordered (May, 1878) to take ammon. brom. 3 ss., tinct. belladonnae mx.,[IN THE ORIGINAL TEXT THE "m" OF "mx."
