  King's American Dispensatory, 1898: Hyoscyamus   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Hyoscyamus is usually given in cases where opium disagrees, or where constipation must be avoided; in neuralgic and all spasmodic affections, as renal, uterine, hepatic and flatulent colic, asthma, gout, rheumatism, chronic cough, irritations of the urinary organs, and inflammatory cases attended with nervous excitability and not with high fever.
Hyoscyamus has been declared useless in delirium tremens, but there is abundant reliable evidence to prove that it is an exceedingly useful agent when that malady is not of the most active character, and the victim is given to low muttering delirium.
Hyoscyamus should not be overlooked as a calmative in nymphomania, particularly if due to childbirth, when there is evidently more delirium than sexual passion; the circulation is feeble, the pulse quick and small, the brain active, and the patient may have been disturbed with unpleasant dreams.

Hyoscyamus Oil—Expressed Fixed oil expressed from seeds of Hyoscyamus niger L. It is not narcotic; possesses only the properties of a fixed oil.
The roots,—which have been the most common cause of incidental poisoning with henbane, in consequence of their resemblance, not very strik-ing, however, to parsnips,—appear almost inert early in spring, and acquire activity only when the plant is in full vegetation during the summer (Orfila).
Hyoscyamus has never come into use in this country as a remedy for dilating the pupil, or as a topical anodyne; but it is probably little, if at all, inferior for these purposes to belladonna.

A dose containing a quadrillionth of a drop of the juice, or better, a small portion of such a drop is more than sufficient for all homoeopathic curative purpose when all other foreign irritants and drugs are kept away from the patient.
Convinced by a thousand-fold experience, I assert this of the homoeopathic employment of medicines universally and invariably, particularly when the disease is acute ; and this is especially true of the employment of belladonna, stramonium, and hyoscyamus in hydrophobia.
So let it not be said, "One of these three medicines was given in the strongest doses, and not too seldom, but every two or three hours, and yet the patient died that was precisely the reason." I reply with firm conviction, "that was precisely the reason Why the patient died, and you killed him.

 Homeopathy homeopathic medicine HYOSCYAMUS NIGER   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
Hyoscyamus is known since ancient times and was used as a house hold drug.  References about this drug are found in 'Arabian Nights' and also in Anglo' Saxon works on medicine.  It acts like a purgative.  But in allopathy it is used as a "cerebral depressant" in acute mania.
The name Hyoscyamus is derived from the word Hyos meaning a hog and cyamos, a bean, because the bean acts as an intoxicant upon swine, but not on other animals.  Niger means fl; the inner side of the flowers is purplish fl in colour.
Lascivious mania - There is highest degree of lascivious mania in Hyoscyamus.  Patient want to show his private parts to the public.  Kicks off the clothes, immodesty, patient becomes completely naked in bed and chatters.  Sings obscene songs.  Laughs at everything, silly expression and loquacity.  Laughs and cries alternately, always talks about sex.

 botanical.com - A Modern Herbal | Henbane - Herb Profile and Information
Henbane ( Hyoscyamus niger, Linn.) is a member of the important order Solanaceae, to which belong the Potato, Tobacco and Tomato, and also the valuable Belladonna.
The herb is also called Hog's-bean, and both its botanical name Hyoscyamus and the tenth-century Jusquiasmus are derived from the Greek words hyos and cyamos, signifying 'the bean of the hog,' which animal is supposed to eat it with impunity.
An old AngloSaxon name for it was 'Belene,' probably from the bell-shaped flowers; then it became known as 'Hen-bell,' and from the time that its poisonous properties were recognized this name was changed to 'Henbane,' because the seeds were thought to be fatal to poultry.

Genomic and cDNA clones for vetispiradiene synthase, a sesquiterpene cyclase found in Hyoscyamus muticus, were isolated using a combination of reverse transcription-polymerase chain reactions and conventional cloning procedures.
Intron-exon organization of the vetispiradiene synthase gene was identical with that previously described for 5- epi -aristolochene synthase (tobacco sesquiterpene cyclase) and casbene synthase (castor bean diterpene cyclase), and the vetispiradiene synthase amino acid sequence was 77% identical with and 81% similar to the tobacco sesquiterpene cyclase.
Solid vertical bars correspond to intron positions within the Hyoscyamus, tobacco, and castor bean genes, and the hatched bars in the mint and fungal genes delimit the corresponding protein domains used to calculate identity scores.
