		When hyoscyamine is taken in doses of one or two granules every halfhour, there is soon perceived dryness of the mouth and throat, dilatation of the pupils, increase of the number of pulsations and respirations, and redness of the face.
		Hyoscyamine, in doses of 1-120 to 1-60 of a grain, was found by Lemoine “to be a safer, more certain and more efficient hypnotic, in acute mania, than hyoscine in similar cases.” Kobert regards “hyoscine as a feeble narcotic for healthy men.
		Hyoscyamine is a very useful remedy in treating the diseases of children, and may be used successfully to allay spasms, to soothe fretting and cross infants who are suffering from teething and, especially, to quiet those colicky children who cry almost constantly.

	King's American Dispensatory, 1898: Hyoscyamus (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
		Hyoscyamine is an active poison, as are its salts; a minute quantity of it placed within the eye, causes a persistent dilatation of the pupil.
		No difference is observable in the action of hyoscyamine and atropine upon the mechanism of accommodation and upon the movements of the lungs and heart.
		From the fact that much of the so-called "amorphous hyoscyamine," the most active kind, is frequently largely contaminated with hyoscine, it has been extremely difficult to determine the exact field of action of each, or the proper doses.
