CINCHONA OFFICINALIS. 162
CINCHONA OFFICINALIS (<'hma).
Peruvian Bark. Rubiacese.
Unknown previous to middle of seventeenth century. Named from Countess El-Cinchon, wife of the vice king of Peru. It was distributed by the Jesuits among the poor as a febrifuge. Grows on eastern range of Andes, and is being naturalized in India,
It was first proved by Hahnemann in 1790.
The yellow bark was mainly used in the provings. Those chiefly used in pharmacy are: 1. Cinchona Calisaya, also called Cinchona Eegia or Cinchona Flava, Koyal or genuine* yellow bark. 2. Cinchona de Huanuco, grey or silver Cinchona ; and, 3. Cinchona Rubra, or Ked Cinchona.
Hahnemann mentions that in 1790, when proving Cortex China, the first idea of the homoeopathic law of cure dawned upon his mind.
