COMMENTS - J.
H.
Cook gave an account of Stigm in the Med.
Cent.
He quoted the re sults of Dumont’s
investigation of its action on the heart: “It makes the heart's action slower and stronger.
Regulates its rhythm.
Its diuretic action is manifested first.
Its action is more powerful and evident in cardiac dis orders with dropsy.
With the disappearance of the dropsy arterial tension increases and venous tension diminishes.”
