Its chief use has been as a prophylactic against infection and to clear up after-\neffects of an attack. \nMorbillinum is extremely useful for cases of debility, weak eyes, blepharitis, conjunctivitis, etc., left after severe \nmeasles.

Striduous laryngitis.  \nCOMMENTS - This nosode was prepared by Gross, a contemporary of Hering. Gross used to soak some \nglobules in the blood of the patient suffering from measles, dynamised and used via olfaction.  \nAccording to another version, Gross gave some natural globules to the patient suffering from measles, who \nkept them in his hands firmly closed, and afterwards Gross made dilutions from these globules.  \nClarke would prescribe a dose of the Mor- bill. 30c 2 or 3 times daily as a prophylactic given to those who are \nor may be exposed to infection. For an attack of the disease, he foun d nothing better than Morbill. 30c, eight \nor ten globules in six ounces of water, a dessert spoonful every two hours.  \nClarke noted that the effect of this is heightened by alternately giving Bell. 30c in the same way. These two \nmedicines will be sufficient to carry through any uncomplicated case and in his experience do even \nMorbillinum better than Puls. \nDr. D. Sheppard case: Baby Jean, aged 13 months, who had done well on repeated doses of Silica, so that \nshe weighed 22 lb. and had 7 teeth without any disturbance, developed measles at the beginning of June, \n1941.

The next week she was extremely lively and happy as always, and had gained \n6 oz. Morbillinum was repeated weekly until July 10th, when she weighed 22 lb. 3 oz., a gain of nearly 20 oz. \nin three weeks, plus the eruption of another tooth and four more nearly through; always cheerful and bright \nnow. \nDr. D. Sheppard writes: \"Let me repeat once more: remember the measles serum, Morbillinum, in potency \nduring the convalescence period after measles. There will be no need to send the child to the seaside or give \ninnumerable doses of the nauseat ing cod - liver oil and malt mixture. This treatment is much simpler, less \n \n \ncostly and more efficacious.\u201d \n\u201cAnd if in an older child or even an adult you find that the individual had one or more attacks of measles, and \nhas not been doing too well since, interpose  a dose or two of Morbillinum 30 or higher, and then go back to \nthe other constitutional remedies as may be necessary; and you will be surprised how quickly various states \nof ill-health will clear up.\u201d","Chest":"Tachycardia.
