User Comments about Hyoscyamus
19 Dec 2009 My so 15y5m has taken two dozes (5 globules each) of Hyoscyamus 30C on 17 Nov 09 and 15 Dec 09. He is Autistic with attention deficiency, ticks, twitches, involuntary movements, restlessness, sleeplessness etc. Both times first 10 days his condition is much worse. All symptoms came back very strongly. On 15-th Dec. (2nd doze) we saw that he regained his disturbances within few hours of taking the medicine. Last few days he is not sleeping at at all. However last month the next 20 days or so he was quite better (27 Nov to 14 Dec). We ask if the enhanced disturbance in 1st 10 days is due to any side effect, or is it expected. Also is Hyoscyamus is expected to cure his disturbances permanently or we should expect that symptoms will reduce temporarily during only the medicine period. Thanks. S. S. Manna
