Excerpt from The Incidental Effects of Drugs: A Pharmacological and Clinical Hand-Book Writers have always hesitated to regard these Incidental effects as toxicological, and with justice, for we are not warranted in pronouncing one or more symptoms, which do not appear in a thousand cases after taking a drug, to be the result of poisoning when they show themselves in the next case. It is further to be remembered that the majority of these incidental effects in no wise correspond to the symptoms produced by a poisonous dose of the same drug, and that we cannot produce them at will, especially those affecting the skin. These appear only under definite individual conditions, and are, therefore, almost beyond the reach of experimentalprovocation. Up to the present time, there has been no lack of physi cians thoroughly imbued with humoral-pathological ideas, who, in given cases, attribute a certain teleological significance to the appearance of incidental drug effects, such as was formerly claimed, e. G., for hemorrhage from the hemorrhoidal vessels. In the same manner as it was then regarded as a fortunate circumstance that the anima which presided over the vascular system should have chosen the hemorrhoidal vessels for the elimination of impurities from the body, were the drug symp toms, particularly those affecting the skin, considered as the expression of a struggle between the drug and the morbid humors of the blood, by which the latter, either through functional_changes or material anatomical lesions, gave evidence of their subjection or their elimination from the body.
