Malarial Fever
a fever produced by MALARIA (q. v.). There are several forms of this disease, all produced by the same poison and all influenced by the same line of treatment, especially by the more marked antiperiodic remedies, particularly quinine. The principal forms of malarial fever are intermittent (commonly called ague, chills and fever, etc.), remittent or bilious, congestive, and a few complicated forms, wrongly designated typho-malarial, hæmorrhagic-malarial, etc., all being only aggravations of the usual form of malarial fever.
