Narcissus pseudonarcissus |
(Daffodil)
General
Symptoms of nausea followed by violent vomiting and diarrhoea.
Daffodil bulbs contain an alkaloid the action of which, according
to authorities, varies as to whether the alkaloid is extracted
from the flowering bulb or from the bulb after flowering. Thus
in the former case the alkaloid PRODUCES DRYNESS OF THE MOUTH,
CHECKS CUTANEOUS SECRETIONS, DILATES THE PUPIL OF THE EYE, QUICKENS
THE PULSE, AND SLOWS AND WEAKENS THE HEART CONTRACTIONS. On the
other hand, the alkaloid from the bulbs after flowering produces
COPIOUS SALIVATION, INCREASES CUTANEOUS SECRETION, CONTRACTS THE
PUPIL OF THE EYE, PRODUCES SLIGHT RELAXATION OF THE PULSE, AND
SLIGHT FAINTNESS AND NAUSEA. — THE LANCET.
A remedy for cough and bronchitis. Continuous cough. Coryza; frontal
headache. Convulsive stage of whooping-cough.
Skin.
Erythema of a papular, vesicular and pustular types, aggravation
in wet weather.
