DAPHNE INDICA HOMEOPATHIC REMEDY USED AS LAXATIVE
Daphne odora.
Sweet-scented Spurge Laurel N. O. Thymelaceae.
Tincture of fresh bark.
A shrub from South-East Asia and Australia that grows to 3 metres. Related to Daphne mezereum, which is indigenous to Europe and Asia Minor.
The name Daphne stems from Greek mythology. The nymph Daphne, daughter of the river god Peneus, was fleeing from Apollo, who was in love with her.Cornered, she begged the gods for help, and was changed into a laurel. Since then, the laurel [Laurus nobilis] is dedicated to Apollo and the laurel wreath is one of the permanent attributes with which the god is portrayed. On the basis of the similarity between the leaves and fruit of Daphne and Laurus, the name later was transferred to the Daphne plant genus.
In folk medicine, the leaves of Daphne indica were used as a laxative. The high toxicity of the stem caused numerous fatal accidents.
Introduced and proved by Bute in 1837.It is like its relative D.mezereon in producing affections of muscles, bones, and skin, hence its relation to syphilis and the anti-syphilitic remedies Aur., Merc., Staph.
Its pains are erratic and electric-like. It is like jambos in the craving for tobacco. The skin is clammy. Red rash in spots on legs in evening. Itching.
Daphne oleoides is credited by Hering with relieving leprosy. A peculiar symptom of Daphne is tongue coated on one side only (Rhus has the same, only the Rhus coating is specified as white). Other symptoms are: Foul-smelling tongue. ptyalism with hot saliva. Cold feeling on buttocks. Sudden stitch in region of spleen. Fetidity is a marked feature breath, urine, sweat. The pains are apt to be sudden. They wander suddenly from extremities. Ball of right great toe swollen and very painful; the pain suddenly shoots into the body to region of heart, or some other part of body to abdomen. It is probable that a sensation of parts of the body being separated from one another is characteristic of Daphne. the symptoms of sensation as if the head were separated appeared in proving (see 20 ); and Erastus E. Case has recorded the cure of a man, 45, obese, rheumatic, who presented these symptoms:
"swaying sensation in the head when walking. Constant sensation as if the head were separated from body. sensation as if the vertex were screwed up in a vice. While driving a horse, sensation as if the arms were detached from the body, yet they are under complete control of the will."
It is like Calad. in the craving for tobacco. The skin is clammy. Red rash in spots on legs in evening. Itching. Daphne oleoides is credited by Hering with relieving leprosy.
