Muriaticum acidum — general · James Tyler Kent
When treating a low form of continued fever with extreme prostration Arsenicum, Muriatic acid and Phos. acid force themselves upon the mind. With Arsenicum there has been the anxious restlessness; with Phos. acid there has been the mental prostration, and then the muscular weakness; with Muriatic acid the muscular weakness comes first, and there has been history of restlessness and the mind has been stronger than could be expected. With this great muscular exhaustion with jaw hanging down and the patient sliding down in bed and soon the involuntary stool and urine, this remedy is forced upon the mind. Paralytic weakness is what it must be called. Soon the tongue is paralyzed, as well as the sphincters of the bladder and rectum. It seems to be eminently fitted for the lowest forms of zymotic fever when the above symptoms are present, He finally becomes unconscious. There has been some restlessness, but nothing like Arsenicum and Rhus tox. He refuses to talk because it frets him to do so. Phos. acid is slow answering questions because of exhaustion of mind which makes him unable to think. The vertigo comes on moving eyes, and on lying on the right side. This vertigo is sometimes associated with liver disease. A stout, full blooded jaundiced man about forty had suffered much from pain in the liver, with great soreness, was comfortable only when lying on left side; when he turned on his back or right side an anxious vertigo would come at once and he would break out in copious sweat, and be forced back to the left side. Muriatic acid made a complete cure of this liver trouble, which had been pronounced serious. The headache is aggravated moving the eyes and rising up in bed. ameliorated by walking about slowly.

Muriaticum acidum — introduction · Margaret Lucy Tyler
5*>3 Muriatic acid is not a remedy that one has often had to use except at times for anal conditions : therefore, to picture it, one must quote extensively, trying to bring out its peculiar features, which arç quite distinctive and make appeal for this powerful remedy, when called for, even in alarming and threatening diseases, or phases of disease. Farrington has a most illuminating chapter on the Acids. He distinguishes between the mineral and the organic acids. The mineral acids, as a class, all produce an irritability of fibre together with weakness and prostration . . . whereas the vegetable acids produce weakness without irritability. . . . All the acids, too, produce a peculiar debility . . . a debility that arises from defective nutrition, particularly from blood disease. Thus we find them called for in very low types of disease, disease in which blood poisoning is a prominent feature, in typhçid states and in scarlatina, particularly when of a low type. . . . Clarke says : ” Teste, who did much to define the powers of Mur. ac., groups it with Agnus cast., and Hyosc. ; he considers its action corresponds perfectly to a typical case of typhus.” . . '* Like Nit. -ac., Mur. ac., is a powerful antidote to Merc., and it meets conditions caused by Mercury, and also similar conditions otherwise arising. Like other disinfectants, it causes as well as remedies rapid decomposition of tissues, and dynamically cures low putrid conditions met with in disease. . . . Mur. ac. not only corresponds to low febrile states, it also meets many of their sequelae. Deafness, otitis and glandular swellings about the ears often require Mur. ac. . .
