This is Frontier's nitrogen-flushed double wall silverfoil pack. Some Frontier packs are double wall wax-lined paper. Used as an infusion and decoction. Psyllium is an unusually effective and safe laxative, high in both fiber and mucilage. The 1997 Commission E on Phytotherapy and Herbal Substances of the German Federal Institute for Drugs recommends Psyllium, both the seed and husk of Plantago ovata, for 'Chronic constipation; disorders whereby easy bowel movements with a loose stool are desirable, e.g., in patients with anal fissures, hemorrhoids, following anal/rectal surgery; during pregnancy; as a secondary medication in the treatment of various kinds of diarrhea and in the treatment of irritable bowel.' 'Contraindications: Stenosis of the gastrointestinal tract. Obstruction or threatening obstruction of the bowel (ileus). Poorly controllable diabetes mellitus. Side Effects: In rare cases allergic reactions may occur. Interactions with Other Drugs: The intestinal absorption of other medication taken simultaneously may be delayed. Warning: There may need to be a reduction in the insulin dosage in diabetics who are insulin-dependent.' 'Daily dose: 4 - 20 g of the drug prepared accordingly. Mode of Administration: The whole drug as well as other galenical preparations to be taken orally. Note: Sufficient fluids must be taken with the drug, e.g., 150 ml water to 5 g drug. The dose should be taken a halfhour to one hour after taking other medication.' 'Actions: Diarrhea: An increase of the passage time of the bowel content through bonding of water. Constipation: A decrease of the passage time of the bowel content through increase of the volume of the stool. A lowering of the serum-cholesterol level. A reduction of the postprandial blood sugar increase.' The well-known commercial laxative Metamucil is a preparation of a hydrophilic mucilloid from the husk of psyllium seed. Numerous double blind studies confirm psyllium can lower total cholsterol levels, though high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol (a beneficial form of cholesterol) levels are not affected. It is effective in children as well as adults. King's 1898 Dispensatory: 'The seeds, in tablespoonful doses, in a glass of water, before dinner, have been successfully employed to relieve chronic constipation.' The British Pharmaceutical Codex, 1911: 'Ispaghula is official in India and the Eastern Colonies, where it is used as an equivalent of linseed or barley, and the seeds are much used in the East in dysentery and diarrhoea. The decoction is employed as a cooling demulcent drink, or the seeds are mixed with a little sugar and taken dry. In this form they take up water in the intestinal canal, the resulting mucilage acting as a protection to the inflamed mucous membranes. The crushed seeds mixed with hot water are used externally as a poultice. Dose.—3 to 10 grammes (50 to 150 grains). PREPARATION. Decoctum Ispaghulae, I.C.A.—DECOCTION OF ISPAGHULA. Ispaghula, |

This is Starwest's nitrogen-flushed double wall silverfoil pack. Used as an infusion, decoction, extract, tincture, poultice and ointment. Distilled Witch Hazel is the most widely used household astringent, useful in stemming both internal and external bleeding. It eases hemorrhoid pain, helps bruises to heal and reduces swelling inflammations. Internally, Witch Hazel helps control diarrhea. The 1997 Commission E on Phytotherapy and Herbal Substances of the German Federal Institute for Drugs recommends Witch hazel leaf for 'Minor injuries of skin, local inflammation of skin and mucous membranes. Hemorrhoids. Varicose veins.' 'The drug contains 3 - 8 percent tannin, mainlygallotannins. Other ingredients are flavonoids and essential oil.' 'Dosage: External: Water steam distillate (witch hazel water) undiluted or diluted 1:3 with water; For poultices, 20 - 30 percent in semi-solid preparations. Extract preparations: Semi-solid and liquid preparations, corresponding to 5 - 10 percent drug. Drug: Decoctions of 5 - 10 g of herb per cup (250 ml) of water for compresses and irrigations. Internal use (mucous membranes): Suppositories: 1 - 3 times daily, the amount of a preparation corresponding to 0.1 - 1 g drug to be applied 1 - 3 times a day. Other preparations: Several times daily, corresponding to 0.1 - 1 g drug in preparations, or witch hazel water undiluted or diluted with water. Actions: Astringent; Antiinflammatory; Locally hemostatic.' Grieve's classic 'A Modern Herbal': 'The properties of the leaves and bark are similar, astringent, tonic, sedative, valuable in checking internal and external haemorrhage, most efficacious in the treatment of piles, a good pain-killer for the same, useful for bruises and inflammatory swellings, also for diarrhoea, dysentery and mucous discharges.' 'It has long been used by the North American Indians as poultices for painful swellings and tumours.' 'The decoction has been utilized for incipient phthisis, gleet, ophthalmia, menorrhagia and the debilitated state resultingfrom abortion.' 'A tea made of the leaves or bark may be taken freely with advantage, being good for bleeding of the stomach and in complaints of the bowels, and an injection of this tea is excellent for inwardly bleeding piles, the relief being marvellous and the cure speedy.' 'An ointment made of 1 part fluid extract of bark to 9 parts simple ointment is also used as a local application, the concentration Hamamelin being also employed, mainly in the form of suppositories.' 'Witch Hazel has been supposed to owe its utility to an action on the muscular fibre of veins. The distilled extract from the fresh leaves and young twigs forms an excellent remedy for internal or external uses, being beneficial for bleeding from the lungs and nose, as well as from other internal organs. In the treatment of varicose veins, it should be applied on a lint bandage, which must be constantly kept moist: a pad of Witch Hazel applied to a burst |
