Cina Anthelmintica - Worm-Seed.
-RODDUCK.E.H
This plant is hardy perennial shrub of Asia Minor. We make a tincture or trituration from the seed.
LEADING USES. - Intestinal worms, and worm-symptoms.
NERVOUS SYSTEM. - Grinding of the teeth; starting, restless sleep; twitching of the eyelids; twitching in various parts of the body; Convulsions; Epileptic Spasms.
EYES, NOSE, ETC. - Dilated pupils, with dimness of sight; some amaurotic conditions, with illusions of colour; picking and itching of the nose.
CIRCULATORY SYSTEM. - Pale face; semi-circles under the eyes; frequent feverishness.
RESPIRATORY SYSTEM - Whooping-cough associated with worms; spasmodic cough, sometimes inducing vomiting.
DIGESTIVE SYSTEM - Voracious or variable appetite; pinching pains in the abdomen; itching of the anus; Diarrhoea; Emaciation; large abdomen; pain below the stomach, worse on first waking in the morning and before meals, and relieved by eating.
URINARY SYSTEM - Wetting the bed; white thick urine.
Since worms in the intestinal canal usually give rise to one or more of the foregoing symptoms, it is clear that Cina is homoeopathic to helminthiasis with similar symptoms; hence it is found curative in nearly all affections arising from, or coincident with, the existence of worms; it does not simply expel them, but corrects the condition on which the development of the parasites depends. Whenever the above symptoms occur, whether worms are detected or not, Cina is indicated. Nevertheless, although the alkaloid of Cina, Santonin, is of definite value as a direct parasiticide, Cina in the potencies is often disappointing and more help will frequently be obtained from Spigelia or Teucrium.
