This is an unproved remedy, but
it has irritant properties like the other Ranunculaceć. Hansen gives as indications:
“Pemphigus; bullć are surrounded by a ring, much itching. On the third day they are
transformed into crusts.” Cooper has used it with excellent effect in a case of uterine
cancer, giving single doses of the Ř tincture at long intervals.
