INTRODUCTION Ammonium is only occasionally taken in and then almost completely synthesized in liver to urea. Only traces of salts escape synthesis and circulate in blood.
3
PHYSIOLOGICAL ROLE RRole in phase of excretion. BBuffering of urine with a sparing of alkali. IIts liberated in decomposition accompanying muscle and nerve activity. TThis process is irreversible and results in weakening and paralyzing effects of muscles and nerves under the influence of ammonia.
4
AAmmonia develops in erythrocytosis. EExcess of metabolic end product damage the erythrocytes. EExcess of ammonia is expelled through respiratory system, involvement of mucous membrane of respiratory passages is important.
5
IMPORTANT REMEDIESIMPORTANT REMEDIES Ammonium Acet. Ammonium Benz. Ammonium Brom. Ammonium Carb. Ammonium Caust Ammonium Iod. Ammonium Mur. Ammonium Phos. Ammonium Picric Ammonium Valer.
