Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Albany Medical Annals, Vol. 38: Journal of the Alumni Association of the Albany Medical College; December, 1917
When given by mouth, it should be administered in the tablet or crude drug form, in two to five grain doses every hour, until an excessive amount is taken. A grain is four times the amount of calcium sulphid necessary to neutralize mercuric Chlorid in the test tube. The calcium sulphid solution, if deteriorated, will produce severe convulsions owing to the free action Of calcium on the spinal cord, hence the necessity of a fresh solution. Another danger is the possibility in deteriorated solutions, of hydrogen sulphid which is a fatal poison being present.
