PLEUEISY, PNEUMONIA, &o. 119 



PROGNOSIS. Horses may get well in all stages of 

 Pleuro-Pneumonia, except in very extensive hepati- 

 zation, or solidification of the lung, when, if recovery 

 occurs at all, it will be imperfect. The success has 

 gained immensely under Homeopathic and Specific 

 treatment, and hundreds of cases are thus saved, 

 which would be lost under the best directed old 

 school methods, to say nothing of the " hotch-potch " 

 usually employed. 



TREATMENT. Give, the first twenty -four hours, the 

 SPECIFIC for INFLAMMATION, A A, a dose of fifteen 

 drops every two hours. After that, give the SPECIF- 

 IC for COUGH and INFLAMED LUNGS, E E, alternate- 

 ly with the A A, at intervals of two or three hours 

 between the doses. 



Continue this treatment steadily and uniformly 

 by night, as well as by day, if the attack is severe, 

 giving no other medicine, and making no deviation. 

 After a day or two, with the remission of the more 

 violent symptoms, the medicines for FEVER, A A, may 

 be omitted entirely, and only the E E, given as 

 also after the disease has turned, and during con- 

 valescence. After the horse has commenced to im- 

 prove, a dose of the E E, every four hours during 

 the day, will be sufficient to complete the cure. The 

 treatment is the same whether symptoms of Pleurisy 

 or Pneumonia predominate. 



Stabling and food as under Bronchitis. 



We should bear in mind that in all severe cases of 

 this disease, resolution does not take place under 

 four days, and if an improvement takes place in one, 

 two, or three days, we should be satisfied. Rare in- 

 deed will be the cases that do not terminate favor- 

 ably under the Specific Homeopathic practice, care- 

 fully applied.
