Baryta Acetica and Carbonica

Allen, Supplement to the Encyclopedia of Pure Materia Medica, 1879, Vol. X, p. 372

Correction

In Hahnemann’s Chronischen Krankheiten, last edition, vol. ii, these two salts were combined. Hahnemann indicated by a dash, the symptoms belonging to Acetica, and the editor separated these for the “Encyclopedia (an unnecessary refinement, probably).

Recently Dr. Hering has communicated to the editor a discovery of errors in the original text of Hahnemann. The provers of Acetica, from Hahnemann, should be Adams, Sta|)f, Hartmann, Rucker, Gnrss, and Hartlaub. Provers of Carbonica. Hahnemann, Ruined, Hartlaub, and Nenning.

The symptoms recorded by Neumann under Baryta carb. were observed, after the muriate.

Symptom 185 of Acetica should be revised so as to read at the end as in dysentery instead of when at rest;” the error arose from a misprint in the original, which should be Ruhr instead of Ruhe. (See Chronischen Krankh., symptom 309.)
