OWEN HOMOEOPATHICS NUX VOMICA 6C 120 PILULES

Antimonium tartrate has a tradition in homeopathy of being useful for the symptoms of noisy, wheezy coughs with copious mucous which may be difficult to clear. There may be a bluish tinge around the eyes and lips. The Ant tart state comes on when the vitality of the individual is weak; there is a weakness and prostration with a pale face, cold sweat, bluish lips and much secretion of mucous. Where Aconite, Belladonna, Bryonia and Ipecac show intense symptoms, Ant tart is the opposite with little fever, coldness and relaxation thus it may follow remedies like Ipecac and Bryonia. Ipecac has a coarse rattling in the first days of sickness whereas with Ant tart this coarse rattling comes after many days of sickness. Ant tart suits children with frequent bouts of bronchitis, from cold wet weather, rainstorms in autumn. No sooner do they get over one cold another one comes. The acute stage is not violent for them but they keep having these passive rattling colds. There is ulceration of mucous membranes everywhere.

Carbo veg has traditionally been used for the symptoms of feeling weak, and about to faint or collapse. This may be accompanied by a feeling of cold sweat, clammy face and a craving for fresh air and fanning. Carbo veg has also been traditionally used for symptoms of sluggish, weak digestion especially after illness or fasting. Carbo veg addresses the low vitality and weakness that can result from a serious disease or complications, or the loss of fluids following a bout of vomiting or diarrhoea. It may assist the circulation of blood through the veins and capillaries. When impaired, imperfect circulation can cause bluish cold skin and stagnation in the body. It is sometimes called the ‘corpse restorer’ as its use can be dramatic following collapse.
