Characteristics
The observations with this substance are from poisoning cases. The most notable symptoms were: Watery eyes; pale, puffy face; constriction of throat and of chest. There was much sensitiveness noted: sensitiveness of epigastrium; and especially of larynx and whole anterior portion of neck. This will probably prove an indication in laryngeal affections. Cramps and restlessness were also noted.
