_Epilepsy_ sometimes improves under Fish Liver Oil (141); its use may be combined with Sulphate of Copper, in doses of a quarter of a grain twice or thrice daily. For this purpose, dissolve two grains in one ounce of Omum Water; of this, the dose is a teaspoonful. Far superior to all other remedies for _Epilepsy_ is Bromide of Potassium in doses of 10 to 15 grains, in a wineglassful of water, thrice daily. Should the disease not yield to these doses, they may be gradually increased to double or even treble these quantities. The earlier in the disease this remedy is resorted to, the greater are its chances of success; and as a general rule it proves more useful when the fits are severe and frequent, and occur mainly in the daytime, than in the milder attacks, which come only at night. In all cases it is worthy of a fair trial. See also remarks at the end of _Convulsions_ in this Index. _Exhaustion from Hæmorrhage after Fevers or other causes_, give Brandy Mixture (426). _Eyes, Affections of._ Datura (128β). For "_Country Sore Eye_," apply Alum, as directed in Paragraph 23, and Decoction of Turmeric (360) to relieve the burning sensation. Try also Solution of Sugar (406). _For other forms of Ophthalmia, attended with copious discharge_, try Sulphate of Copper (113). _To relieve great pain and intolerance of light_, use Opium locally (292). _Blows on the Eye_: Alum Poultice (24), followed by Sal Ammoniac Lotion (332), to remove discoloration. _Particles of Lime in the Eye_ may be dissolved and removed by dilute Vinegar (382). _Particles of Dirt, &c._, may often be speedily dislodged and removed by drawing the upper eyelid well over the under one as far as possible for a few seconds. This simple plan is often successful when others fail. If this fail, try Solution of Sugar (406). Fresh Plantain Leaf (307) forms an excellent shade for the eyes in all affections of those organs. _Face-Ache, Neuralgic or Rheumatic._ Sal Ammoniac (326), Sulphate of Iron (177), or Fish Liver Oil (141) internally; and Datura (130), and Mustard (253), or Ginger (157) Poultices locally, are measures which, used conjointly, often prove successful. _When periodical_, Cinchona Febrifuge (402*). _Fainting_ generally yields to dashing cold water over the face and neck (386), and applying strong smelling salts to the nostrils; when partially recovered, Omum Water (318) or Asafœtida (35) may be given, or should there be much exhaustion, a dose of Brandy Mixture (426).
