<span tc1>{{anchor:s1}}Cuprum Metallicum.</span>

<span grade2>{{anchor:s2}}Copper. Cu.</span>

{{anchor:s3}}A substance little known as a remedy before Hahnemann, although used by Mediaeval physicians, after its introduction by Hohenheim (called Paracelsus) in the sixteenth century, and later (1845) in an empiric way by the Rademacherian School, in which it ranked as a polychrest.

{{anchor:s4}}A comprehensive monograph, including the provings and observations of Hahnemann and his provers, Boenninghausen, Stapf, Rückert, etc., with results of poisoning and curative symptoms, was published by C. Hering. {{anchor:s5}}In it the effects of the metal and the acetate are conjoined, on account of their similarity, but separated here, for the sake of individuality. {{anchor:s6}}See <span grade2>Cuprum aceticum.</span>
