EUMYDRIN.  METHYL  ATROPINE    NITRATE.     ATROPINEMETHYL  NITRATE. 
Eumydrin,  C6H5(HO.CH2)CH.C02.C7HuN(CH8)2N03  =  C18H26Oe 
N2,  is  the  nitrate  of  methylated  atropine. 
Actions  and  Uses. — Eumydrin  is  a  mydriatic  and  antihydrotic, 
replacing  atropine  sulphate  both  internally  and  externally  in  corre- 
sponding doses.  It  is  claimed  that  it  dilates  the  pupil  more  rapidly 
than  atropine  and  the  dilatation  is  of  shorter  duration,  being 
intermediate  in  these  respects  between  atropine  and  homatropine. 
It  is  said  to  be  much  less  toxic  than  atropine,  so  that  larger  doses 
may  be  given  to  secure  the  effect.  It  is  particularly  recommended 
for  the  treatment  of  night  sweats,  whooping  cough  and  the  relief 
of  enuresis.  Dosage. — Internally  as  an  antihydrotic,  OOOI  to 
0  0025  gramme  to  grain).  Externally  as  mydriatic,  in  solu- 
tions about  one-tenth  stronger  than  the  usual  atropine  solutions.
