Action: Is complex (as of Op.). Is initially a stimulant to nerves creating a tonic invigorating effect, which is but a forerunner of hypertonicity-hyperaesthesia and abnormal cerebral nervous excitement producing vertigo, then vigorous deliriums,and even mania (-a-potu), a state of intoxication. At this turbulent stage we get its universal commotion (spasms, stitches etc.). As a counterpart of this nervous excitement, we get also mental habitude (dulness). Lastly comes relaxation, ending in a locomotor ataxia with sensory and motor inco- ordination and unsteadiness (like Onos.), numbnesses, or even paralysis, also a dementia (typifying senility).
Interveningly at any stage one may be subject to neuro- vegetative disturbances (catarrhs, also asthenia) in the G-I.,G- U.or Respiratory tracts too.These conditions may appear also without neuro-excitements in (neurotic) patients (cp. Lyc.).
All along these, (intellectual) pts. become more and more chilly and hostile to everything cold; also to snow, with impact on the (epidermis, and various pains.
Chronicity, with slowly deepening pathologies.
Anemia of nerve-centres (in brain and spine) due to persistent spasms or contractions of blood-vessels,causing numerous effects (motor and sensory); result of over brain work.
Fungi prominently act on CNS (producing universal commotion ), sexual organs (producing increased desire ) and skin (producing irritation ) resulting secondarily into the phase of depression
