Abstract

Translation from the Spanish of an article published in La Homeopatia, the Official Organ of the Homeopathic Institute of Colombia, in July 1969. Translator: Mrs. Nona Davey. Tincture of yagé is prepared from leaves and shoots of the plant and prescribed in dilutions of 12x and 30x against the following complaints: Loss of memory, up to the point where the patient finds it impossible to remember an act committed only a few minutes earlier. Madness. The patient speaks heatedly, without knowing that he has done so or what he has said, dislikes intensely those near and dear to him and feels hatred towards them, but shows himself affable and affectionate towards those people who were antipathetic to him. Delirium. He feels himself persecuted and threatened by spirits, who oblige him to walk to one side or the other, as if impelled by a force which wishes to uproot him from the earth and transport him through the air. Seasickness. When consciousness is lost and the patient falls to the ground. Frontal cephalalgia. When it is sharp and profound and extends from the left parietal to the occipital. Stammering. When it is necessary to make great efforts to pronounce words and there is an abundant secretion of the sublingual glands and the saliva causes nausea and vomiting. Epilepsy and Saint Vitus's dance. Lingual paralysis. When only able to pronounce words articulated gutturally. Paralysis of the right side. The patient drags the leg along the ground, feeling chilly in the spinal column: a sensation of slowness in the lumbar region. Devitalization. Heart. Acceleration of the cardiac functions, which becomes worse with the changes of the moon. Liver. Sharp pains in the region of the liver, which become worse at night. Bilious vomit, albuminous and of bitter taste. Polyuria. When there is a considerable increase of urine and this has a yellow colour and strong odour. An increase in sexual appetite as much for the man as the woman. In the weakening of the sphincters of the anus, pains in the prostate and in the testicles, and, in women, when they feel rending pains in the right ovary.
