Nux vomica has peculiar and characteristic indications for constipation, and when prescribed upon these indications it will cure every time. Nothing is surer than this. But Nux vomica is often prescribed when these indications are not present, and often does much good; in this classof cases there will almost invariably be present one of the great clinical indications of the remedy, and that is, its value in antidoting purgative medicines.SulphurMany of the older homoeopaths used to give Sulphur and Nux vomica in alteration for constipation.
