Dose.—Of the fluid extract of gelsemium Extractum Gelsemii
Fluidum—the only officinal preparation, lUv to TTLxv. Of the
tincture of gelsemium Tinctura Gelsemii—(gelsemium 5iv, al-
cohol, Oj,) the dose is gtt. x to gtt. xx. The fluid extract is
preferable for administration j but one fluidrachm of this has
caused death. Dose of the alkaloid gelsemia., gr. ^i^ to gr. ^ly.
Dental Uses.—Gelsemium is greatly extolled as a remedy for
neuralgia of the fifth nerve, often affording permanent relief, es-
pecially when the affection is associated with diseased teeth. The
dose may be repeated at any time after an hour and a half, if the
pain is not relieved ; a third dose is seldom required. In neu-
ralgia of the face or head, three-minim doses of the tincture of
gelsemium every half hour, will often act very beneficially, and
leave no ill effects. Owing to the toxic effects of this drug, care
is necessary that the dose is a moderate one, and the symptoms
carefully observed.
