COMMENTS-Cases of Kali-ar poisoning with massive doses present nothing to distinguish them from cases
of other arsenical prepara tions, but Kali-ar has had a short provingTesting a remedy on healthy volunteersThe systematic method of administering a substance to healthy subjects to observe and record the symptoms it produces. and a number of cases of allopathic
provings are on record.
Jonathan Hutchinson recorded a number of cases of right-sided herpes.
One of his patients observed that,
while taking Kali-ar., her sclerotics became thick and yellow instead of clear and bluish.
The iris, which was
blue, became more gray.
Her skin, instead of being fair and florid, became m uddy and older looking.
This was a mystery to Hutchinson as he usually gave Kali-ar to make the skin clearer, but he was compelled
to record the fact, though he did not apparently perceive the homeopathic solution of the mystery.
Hutchinson also noted cases of epithelioma developing after prolonged medication with Kali-ar for psoriasis.
In another case, an attack of measles was almost exactly mimicked.
