Physician's Materia Medica on Duboisia
DUBOISIADUBOI
The leaves of DUBOISIA MYOPOROIDES, R. Br. Resembles Bella donna in its medicinal properties, but more distinctly hypnotic and calmative. The extract, also the alkaloid derived from the leaves, is used to produce mydriasis, its action being more prompt than that of atropine, and the effect passing off more quickly.1
