Based on the individual homoeopathic constituents of Galium-Heel, therapeutical possibilities result for the activation of the unspecified defenses, particularly in chronic diseases and especially in all phases with enzyme damage on the right of the  biological division (impregnation, degeneration and neoplasm phases), regardless of whether internal (asthma, bronchiectasis, hypertonia, hepatic disorders, achylia gastrica, colitis), neurological (Parkinson’s disease, multiple sclerosis, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, causalgia, trigeminal and other types of neuralgia), urological, dermatological, opthalmological, ears, nose and throat (otosclerosis, papillomas, anosmia) or other manifestations of cellular processes are involved. Precancerous state and therapeutical damage represent a primary indication for Galium-Heel.

Galium-Heel acts inductively on detoxicating intracellular enzyme systems; further, through the stimulation of the main defensive system, thereby promoting detoxicating and secretory reactions and leading, in particular, to a strengthening of the function of the connective tissues.

Galium-Heel, by cleansing the homotoxic terrain, can delay neoplasm phases  or render them stationary. Galium-Heel is, at the same time, a geriatric medicament.

The dosage is adjusted according to the disease, the clinical picture and the stage of the illness. In continuous treatment, including in geriatrics, 10 drops 3 times daily. At the start, massive initial-dose therapy for 1-2 days, 10 drops every 15-30 minutes until phase conversions are achieved. In precancerous state and neoplasm phases (especially for sarcoma), increasing and decreasing dosage of 5-50 drops (daily 3-5 drops more or less), 3-4 times daily. Avoid excessive reactions! Daily maximum dose (DMD): 150-200 drops.

Galium-Heel ampoules at first daily, later once to 3 times weekly i.m., s.c.. i.v.

For (pre-)cancerous state, simultaneous antihomotoxic stimulation with Engystol N and Traumeel S and promotion of detoxication with Hepeel, Psorinoheel and Lymphomyosot, also with intermediate catalysts of the citric acid cycle, suis-organ preparations, etc.

Injection solution Composition:

Indications:

Ulcus ventriculi et duodeni.

Dosage:

In acute disorders 1 ampoule daily, otherwise 3-1 times weekly i.m., s.c., i.d., i.v. Package sizes:

Packs containing 5, 10, 50 and 100 ampoules of 1.1 ml.

Pharmacological and clinical notes

Origanum vulgare (marjoram)

Gastro-intestinal catarrh (with or without ulceration), antispasmodic. Erythraea centaurium (centaury)

Gastric, hepatic and biliary disorders, antipyretic.

Based on the individual homoeopathic constituents of Erigotheel, therapeutical possibilities result for the treatment of ventricular and duodenal ulcers, hyperacidity, parapyloric syndrome according to Strauss = irritation triad: hyperaesthesis, supersecretion and hypermotility of the stomach.

As the bitter principles contained in both components of the preparation are able to increase the excitability of the sympathetic nervous system, the effect of Erigotheel is essentially conditioned by the indirect alleviation of the vagotonia caused by the stimulation of the antagonistic sympathetic nervous system. In addition to a mild spasmolysis, Erigotheel leads to a biological regulation of the secretory function of the gastroduodenal mucosa, creating the necessary physiological conditions for curing an ulcer, which are also of great significance in preventing recurrent ulcers. Also chronic ulcers and the dumping syndrome can be favourably influenced therapeutically by Erigotheel.

The dosage is adjusted according to the disease, the clinical picture and the stage of the illness: Erigotheel is advantageously administered over a fairly long period, during which 3 injections (i.m., s.c., i.v.) are given weekly in the form of segmental therapy, in

the skin of the right side of the epigastrium, or paravertebrally. In acute disorders or as initial treatment, daily injections for several days.

Combination with Traumeel S in an i.v. or i.m. mixed injection enhances the therapeutical success.

For particularly therapy-resistant cases it is recommended, in addition to an Erigotheel- Traumeel S mixed injection to be administered every 2 days i.v. or i.m., on the intervening days to administer 1 ampoule of Erigotheel in the hyperesthetic zones in the form of wheals or injected s.c.

The additional oral therapeutic agent is Duodenoheel (1 tablet 3 times daily); in chronic cases Anacardium-Homaccord; where there is a suspicion of precancerous state, Galium-Heel, etc.

Pharmacological and clinical notes

Euphorbium (euphorbium)

Mucosal catarrh of the upper part of the respiratory tract, e.g. rhinitis and sinusitis, catarrh of the ear passages.

Pulsatilla pratensis (wind flower)

Migrating disorders, remedy for affections of the mucosa, thick, mild and greenish yellow discharges; conjunctivitis, rhinitis.

Luffa operculata (vegetable sponge)

Allergic and vasomotory rhinitis, rhinitis atrophicans, sinusitis, hay fever. Mercurius bijodatus (mercury(ll) iodide)

Angina, particularly viral, acute nasal catarrh, catarrh of the sinuses, suppurations. Mucosa nasalis suis (nasal and sinus mucosa)

Sinusitis chronica, polysinusitis, ozena, nasal polypi, affections of the sinuses. Hepar sulfuris (calcium sulphide)

Tendency towards suppurations, particularly on the skin and lymph glands, tonsillar abscesses.

Argentum nitricum (silver nitrate)

Pharyngitis, laryngitis, hoarseness, conjunctivitis, headache. Sinusitis-nosode (sinusitis-nosode)

Acute and chronic suppurations of the sinuses, lymphatism, ozena, hay fever.

Based on the individual homoeopathic constituents of Euphorbium compositum, therapeutical possibilities result with drops and injection solution for the treatment of acute and chronic sinusitis (maxillary, frontal, ethmoidal, sphenoidal), as well as of tubal catarrh (ear) and of dropsy of the middle ear. Nasal spray (dosing spray) for chronic dry nasal catarrh, dry nasal mucosa in chronic sinusitis; to facilitate nasal respiration in nervous and allergic coryza (hay fever); for acute nasal catarrh and catarrh caused by a chill (dissolves the secretions, ensures free nasal respiration and relieves frontal pressure); as auxiliary remedy for atrophic rhinitis (ozena).

The preparation, which is available as drops to be taken as well as in the form of injection solution, has shown excellent effects in an extensive series of tests,  especially for chronic sinusitis, and particularly the dry form (atrophy of the nasal mucous membrane), bringing about reactivation and, in the form of regressive vicariation, restoring the lubrication of the mucosa. Occasionally it is beneficial, at the same time to administer also the preparation Mucosa compositum, after a fairly long use of caustics, after ointments which reduce mucus, etc., also the preparations which act effectively on the enzymes, Coenzyme compositum, Ubichinon compositum; for inflammatory symptoms also Echinacea compositum S (possibly forte i.v.) or Traumeel S and Engystol N.

Also for aphonia, Euphorbium compositum injection solution has proved effective in combination with Echinacea compositum S, Mucosa compositum and Ubichinon compositum.

For dropsy of the middle ear and for chronic otitis, all 3 forms of medicament should be administered simultaneously.

Euphorbium compositum-Ñasal Spray S stimulates the mucosal functions, their action being directed especially towards the nose and paranasal sinuses, having a regulatory effect on the widest variety of diseases of the mucosa of the sinuses, including acute and allergic coryza. Avoiding the otherwise usual deturgescence of the mucosa, and without reactive hyperaemia with the consequent constriction of the respiratory tract, the nasal mucous membrane alone is cleansed from crusts and secretions by the solvent (physiological salt solution). Irksome desiccation is avoided, free respiration ensured and the unpleasant frontal pressure dispelled. In addition, the administration  of Euphorbium compositum-Nasal Spray S over a fairly long period does not bring about a decrease in their action, but on the contrary, this is increased with time.

Pharmacological notes

Vincetoxicum hirundinaria: viral infections, mononucleosis (1,2), and mumps (2).
Sulfur: influenza (3,4), epidemic and sporadic fevers (5), continued fevers (4,6,7), pneumonia (6–14), hepatitis (4,7,11,15,16), aphthae (ulcerated or nonulcerated) (4,7,9,11–13,17–21), mononucleosis (16), urticaria (4,7,12,13,15,16,22,23), pruritus vulvae (4), furunculosis (4,5,7,12,13,19,24–26), eczema (4,6,7,9,10,12–14,19–21,25,27), hay fever (15,16), bronchitis (6,7,12,13,24,27–29), pertussis (7,16,30), asthma (4–7,9,10,12–14,17,19–21,27,29,31), heart palpitations (4–6,13,28,29,32,33), endocarditis (34), migraine (10,16,22,26,35), neuralgia (4,6,7,9,13,17,28,29,31), and bronchiectasis (36).

Clinical notes

Because of the individual constituents of Engystol, the medication can be offered for the following conditions:

1. Viral infection of all kinds: influenzalike infections, viral pneumonia, viral hepatitis (adjuvant therapy), and aphthous ulceration (reactivation of a viral disease, such as Epstein-Barr virus infection)
2. Skin disease: urticaria, pruritus vulvae, eczema, and furunculosis
3. Respiratory system conditions: hay fever, bronchitis, bronchiectasis, pertussis, pneumonia, and asthma (adjuvant therapy)
4. Circulatory system conditions: palpitations and endocarditis (adjuvant therapy)
5. Nervous system conditions: migraine and neuralgia

Note:

Engystol exerts its effect mainly on the immune system and the sympathetic nervous system. Apart from having an effect on neutrophil proliferation in vitro, which is synergistically enhanced by Gripp-Heel (37), a recent study (38) of Engystol demonstrated the antiviral effect of Engystol on adenovirus and respiratory syncytial virus. In clinical studies, Engystol lowered the severity of symptoms and enhanced resolution of influenzalike infections when given prophylactically (39). The sympathomimetic effect of Engystol is achieved through the asclepiadic acid in vincetoxin, which acts similarly to aconitine. It has a powerful effect on the sympathetic nervous system. Reckeweg (1) postulated that homeopathic Sulfur may regenerate sulfhydryl-containing enzymes, which are powerful antioxidants and free radical scavengers. Thus, it also may have a deep action on the extracellular matrix.

Therapeutic notes:

Because of the sympathomimetic effect of Engystol, caution should be exercised when it is injected into nervous individuals with sympathetic overload because it contributes to the symptoms.

By means of homoeopathic remedies, the action of which is directed specifically at reaction phases and septic clinical pictures, also in viral diseases, a broad antihomotoxic reversal effect is achieved in the most varied reaction phases, also with the aid of nosodes and trace elements, particularly when, in regressive vicariation, serious inflammation occurs; in such cases Traumeel S, Engystol N and Hepar compositum (stimulation of the detoxicating hepatic function) may be administered as alternating injections. In feverish reaction phases, in general the usual form of Echinacea compositum S is administered. However, serious toxin levels with sepsis, chronic infections, primary chronic polyarthritis, and in particular precancerous dermatosis and neoplasia, so long as they can still be treated, require a considerable strengthening of the Echinacea components. In these cases, therefore, Echinacea compositum forte S is administered.

In the cellular phases there is frequently a blockage of the defensive system. In addition, because of the disturbance of the fermentative detoxication mechanisms, there is a continual attack by intermediary homotoxins which, for their part, are responsible for secondary syndromes and symptoms of toxic origin. In this case, massive initial-dose therapy (Spitzy) with stimulating drugs is necessary, especially in degeneration and neoplasm phases.

In order to stimulate the defensive system fundamentally and at the same time reopen the valvular functions which may have been obstructed, it is beneficial to administer increasing doses according to the following plan:

On the 1st day: 1/2 ampoule Echinacea compositum forte S i.v.; on the 2nd day: 1 ampoule Echinacea compositum forte S i.v.; on the 3rd day: 1 ampoule Echinacea compositum forte S i.v.; on the 4th day: 2 ampoules Echinacea compositum forte S i.v.; on the 5th day: 2 ampoules Echinacea compositum forte S;

on the 6th and 7th days the treatment should be omitted.

Then possibly only every second day one i.v. injection should be administered; later, only once weekly.

If the fever occurring after the usual intravenous injection of Echinacea compositum forte S has not subsided by the following midday, a day free from medicaments is inserted as early as after the first i.v. injection, in order to allow the defensive system time to react. Further, it can then be ascertained whether the therapeutic fever which may occur is to be regarded merely as a transitory intermediate reaction or whether a general feverish detoxicating reaction on a broad basis has been provoked, as the inflammation is a major, biologically important and, in the case of serious toxication, irreplaceable detoxication reaction. In this way (in the form of regressive vicariation: Reckeweg), even degenerative phases and possibly even neoplasia in reaction phases can be reversed and influenced favourably or even cured.

It is certainly not necessary for favourable regressive vicariations to manifest themselves exclusively as a fever.

In the case of a persistent fever continuing for weeks, in addition to Echinacea compositum forte S, 1 ampoule i.v. every 2-3 days, also interpolated injections of Engystol N and Traumeel S and possibly of Gripp-Heel are beneficial. In addition,

detoxication of the liver by Hepeel, etc., and elimination through the gastro-intestinal canal can be stimulated with Momordica compositum, Anacardium-Homaccord, Mucosa compositum, Nux vomica-Homaccord, etc.
