Exact source claims and related context are never blended together.
This hierarchy shows why a use appears beside the preparation. The strongest relationship comes first; contextual links remain explicitly labeled.
The preparation remains searchable as an archival method record without an invented indication.
Automated live-review record
This formula was extracted automatically from a historical source and published directly for live editorial inspection. It may contain OCR, title, botanical-identity, ingredient, structure or safety errors. Do not use it as treatment, dosage or self-care guidance.

Ingredients or materials as extracted
- Conium: During repletion, drachms of poisonous narcotics, producing hurried respiration, fluttering of the heart, spasm of the volun- tary muscles, total loss of motive power, involuntary evacu- ations, and partial cessation of circulation : all this frightful train of symptoms may be endured for hours in succession, and the animal will recover : give but a third of the dose, from the very same jar, after a twenty-four hours
Method as extracted
- Infuse according to the source passage: During repletion, drachms of poisonous narcotics, producing hurried respiration, fluttering of the heart, spasm of the volun- tary muscles, total loss of motive power, involuntary evacu- ations, and partial cessation of circulation : all this frightful train of symptoms may be endured for hours in succession, and the animal will recover : give but a third of the dose, from the very same jar, after a twenty-four hours’ fast, and it will be followed by a more rapid succession of similar symptoms, and produce death in a few minutes. (Vide Exp. XIX.) Coiudet, of Geneva, relates a case of an old woman that took two ounces of an infusion of Conium with a glass of whiskey, fasting, and it killed her in an hour ; hence before giving our prognosis in all cases of poisoning, it is needful to ascertain whether the stomach was foil or empty, or how long the sufferer had fasted before taking the suspected dose, and if possible the quantity actually swallowed.
Live editorial status
This record was published without a human-review gate by site policy. Automated flags at publication: no primary ingredient taxon link, title ingredient mismatch, not marked promotable. Publication makes the source extraction inspectable; it does not verify identity, completeness, efficacy or safety.
Toxic / do not self-use
Do not self-use. The record remains public for historical, botanical and hazard research.
- Unreviewed automated import: this record is public for live editorial inspection and has not passed manual identity, formula or safety review.
- Historical formula: ingredient identity, strength, contamination risk and terminology may differ from modern practice.
- Do not use this record as dosage or treatment guidance. Every ingredient, route and contraindication requires qualified editorial verification.
- The historical use wording does not establish modern clinical effectiveness.
Primary wording. Visible interpretation. No borrowed certainty.
The public record separates the historical passage, structured preparation data, use relationship and modern safety boundary. Same-plant context is presented as context, never as proof that this preparation was intended for that use.
