Epiphysterin. A nosode.

Clinical

Fibroma. Menorrhagia. Metrorrhagia.

Characteristics

This is one of Dr. Burnett's nosodes, used by him in cases of haemorrhage in a patient suffering from fibrous tumour, possibly with malignant elements. At any rate, I have found it of great value in controlling uterine haemorrhage, whether connected with fibrous growth or not. I have used it in the 30th upwards, giving one or two doses weekly.

Relations

Compare: The cancer nosodes, in fibrous tumours and uterine haemorrhages, Thlaspi b. p., Fraxin, Hydrastis and its alkaloids.
