Reason for useT. F. Allen

Suppression of all excretions, particularly of urine. Trembling of the whole body. Constant restless movements. Subsultus tendinum ; face constantly changing its expression owing to the involuntary contractions of the various muscles. Convulsions very easily brought on and reproduced ; a lighted candle, a mirror, running water or the attempt to drink, may bring on most frightful spasms. Convulsions accompanied by screams, shrieking voice, alternating with rage and most violent excitement.
