Characteristics EN
Merc. bin. was introduced and proved by the American Provers' Union in 1856, and is an important addition to the mercurial group. It acts more intensely on the lymphatic glands and cellular tissue than Merc. v., which it otherwise closely resembles. It has been extensively tested in throat affections. It acts more on the left side, or primarily on the left.
The symptoms are < on empty swallowing; also < on swallowing food. Cases have been recorded in which small doses of Merc. bin. 3x or 2x have cut short an attack of asthma; or, if taken at bed-time, have prevented an expected attack from developing during the night. The explanation proffered is that Mercury, and especially its iodides, render the blood incapable of holding in solution large quantities of uric acid and urates, which are presumably the irritant factor in an asthmatic attack.
But the pathogenesis of Merc. bin. has oppressed breathing, and if the general Merc. conditions are present it is quite capable of acting dynamically Headache is < in open air. Eyes < by bright light; psoric eye affections. Right side of nose is inflamed.
The liver, spleen, and pancreas are affected; and also the bladder and male sexual organs. Wandering rheumatism. Troublesome dreams. It acts well in old cases of syphilis, particularly in persons of lax fibre, scrofulous, and those who have taken much Mercury.
The symptoms are < after sleep. < After dinner. < Afternoon and evening. Open air > head.
Getting warm walking > deafness. Cold air, cold washing, getting wet <. Touch and pressure <.
