Pharmacological and clinical notes Constituents Indications

Rheum (rhubarb)
Diarrhea in children and infants, with acid stools; gastroenteritis with colic
in adults
Based on the individual
homeopathic constituents of Veratrum-Homaccord, therapeutical possibilities
result for the treatment of dysentery, diarrhea of all kinds, e.g. in
gastroenteritis, nutritional disorders, intestinal spasms and tenesmus,
incontinentia sphincteris ani, dyspepsia in infants and small children (in
addition to Gastricumeel,
Diarrheel and Nux vomica-Homaccord). Diverticulitis and colitis mucosa (in
addition to Nux vomica-Homaccord, Galium-Heel, Psorinoheel and possibly
Mercurius-Heel).
Conditions of collapse with cold sweat (in addition to Aurumheel drops, Spigelia
compositum, Galium-Heel; for heart attacks also Glonoin-Homaccord, etc.).
For syral spasms resulting from local circulatory disturbances or after injuries
(e.g. rupture of muscles) Veratrum-Homaccord is effective in addition to
Cruroheel and possibly Hamamelis-Homaccord as well as Spascupreel.
Veratrum-Homaccord has also proved effective in mental changes, e.g. when there
is a tendency to tear everything up or to crush any objects, also in delirium
tremens
(i.v. with Nux vomica-Homaccord).
As intensified defecation is to be regarded as the release of homotoxins,
Veratrum-Homaccord, in general in diarrhea, should be used only when there has
been considerable excretion. In cases of poisoning, Diarrheel must be
administered as well in every instance (adsorption of the
toxins).
The dosage is adjusted according to the disease, the symptoms and the stage of
the illness:
for acute disorders,
10 drops every 15 minutes,
otherwise 10 drops 3 4 times daily,
possibly with suitable alternating or auxiliary remedies.
In acute disorders
1 ampule daily,
otherwise 1 ampule
1-3 times weekly, s.c., i.m., intra-cutaneous, i.v.
