Note 921 — PART IX.—INORGANIC POISONS. (continued 4)

Reading edition

The mixture of blood with the evacuations is more constantly observed in poisoning by corrosive sublimate than in poisoning by arsenic, copper, or lead.

[922] In a case recorded by Dr. Wegeler (Casper’s Wochenschrift, January 10, 1846, p. 30), a youth, aged 17, swallowed 11·6 grms. (3 drachms) of the poison. No pain was experienced on pressure of the abdomen; he died on the sixth day, and during the last three days of life no urine was secreted.
