Hyosciaminum-sulphuratum (Hyosin.)

Hyosciaminum-sulphuratum (Hyosin.) appears in the repertory in 40 rubrics. Of these, 4 are single-remedy rubrics in which only this remedy is listed, and 1 is a small rubric with no more than two other remedies. The emphasis lies on Gestures, Delirium, Children, and Coma; in the total count Excitement, Laughing, and Fright are added. The picture is that of an excited, delirious state with laughing and involuntary hand movements.

Delirium and gestures

The delirium here is giggling, which a single-remedy rubric expresses. The hands grasp and pick involuntarily, namely "Gestures, makes – hands, involuntary motions of the – picking – imaginary hairs, at". Laughing and excitement complete the picture.

Fright and children

A single-remedy rubric under Children describes a state after fright that resembles that of Arsenicum, and Starting and Fright are rubrics of their own. The coma may be accompanied by vomiting.

Summary

The slender data show an excited, cheerful, and at the same time driven state that can end in delirium and coma and, in children, stems from fright.

All rubrics of this remedy, the materia medica and the case work are in Rathmer’s Repertory.
