Hyoscyamus 393 with Stramonium. In also, Stramonium has proven to be very useful. The patients who develop symptoms of Rabies should be treated with Stramonium and Hydrophobinum combined. By the grace of God, they work very well. In case the anti-rabies vaccine is not available, and one is not sure whether the biting dog is rabid or not, Stramonium and Hydrophobinum combined must be administered immediately. These remedies should first be given daily for a few days, then twice a week for a few months and then gradually tapered off. This will, by the grace of God, prevent against the onset of Rabies and obviate any further dangers forever. If the eyesight becomes weak due to the dysfunction of the nerves , then Hyoscyamus will be of good use. In case the vision becomes intermittently blurred and does not focus properly, then also Hyoscyamus must be used. Sometimes, during a high fever, the patient goes into a severe convulsion with the locking of the jaw. The mouth becomes dry and smelly, the tongue becomes red or brown, dry and fissured; the movement of the tongue becomes sluggish or it is not under voluntary control anymore, resulting in frequent interruptions of speech. The tongue becomes insensitive and liable to be cut between the teeth while eating food. If all these symptoms are due to stomach upset , then Pulsatilla and Carbo Veg can also be used. In Hyoscyamus, the stomach becomes flaccid and dilated. The stools (as in typhoid) are granular in appearance or may be watery and mixed with blood. Another troubling problem is that the patient has no control over passing urine or opening the bowels (urinary and faecal incontinence). If women are unable to pass urine after childbirth , then Causticum is the best remedy. Causticum will be much more effective when given along with Arnica. If this treatment is ineffective, then Hyoscyamus must be used. Hyoscyamus is very useful in the treatment of urinary tract infections and inflammations. In Hyoscyamus, there is severe griping pain in the abdomen and the patient feels as if his abdomen is going to burst open. The patient vomits frequently, has hiccups and screams due to pain. He feels dizzy and also has a burning sensation in the stomach.
