(Rue.)
(From vol.. iv, 2nd edit., 1825.)
(The freshly expressed juice of the whole plant, Ruta graveolens, mixed with equal parts of alcohol.)
This powerful plant, hitherto almost only employed in haphazard fashion by common folk as a domestic remedy in indeterminate cases, acquires considerable importance from the following (all too meagre!)Symptoms observed from its administration. The homoeopathic practitioner sees what peculiar serious cases of disease he is able to cure by its means.
If ROSENSTEIN (Reseap., p. 40) cannot sufficiently commend the virtues of rue in affections f the eye and dimness of vision from too much reading, in which SWEDJAUR and CHOMEL agree with him, he must be very blind who fails to see that these are solely owing to the homeopathic power of rue to cause a similar condition in healthy persons. See symptoms 44, 45.
By this so similarly acting medicine the malady is certainly not increased and aggravated as our opponents, who think themselves so wise in their ignorance, would conclude with ridiculous expressions of alarm, and without interrogating experience. On the contrary, it will be cured, quickly and permanently cured (if not dependent on a miasmatic dyscrasia) to the bitter disappointment and confusion of learned routinists who reject the most beneficient of all truths
A dilution which in every drop contains 1/100000th of a grain of this juice, one drop for a dose- all heterogeneous irritants being kept away – I have found to be even a somewhat too large dose in many cases.
Camphor removes the too violent effects of rue.
