The attenuations of this nosode are prepared from the cysts surgically removed from polycystic ovaries.

The main indications are:

Cystic lesions of all kinds; may be tried in ovarian cysts. Disorders of the menar- che. Premature menopause. Migraines during the menses.

The attenuations of this nosode are prepared from exudate discharged or removed by paracentesis, in inflammation of the middle ear.

The main indications are:

Chronic otitis media. Cholesteatoma. Sinusitis. Chronically discharging ears. Oti-

tis externa. Eustachian catarrh. May be effective in chronic cystitis or in tendency to- wards it, since the ear and bladder show certain affinities. As an alternating remedy in osteomyelitis and other suppurations.

The attenuations of this nosode are prepared from the exudate of patients with sup- purative osteomyelitis.

The main indications are:

Chronic bone diseases. Osteomalacia. Bone fistulae. Rickets. Sudeck’s atrophy. Chronic otitis media. Should be used routinely after all fractures, possibly in combi- nation with Mastoiditis Nosode.

The attenuations of this nosode are prepared from debris and pus obtained during surgery to clear out suppurations of the jaw bones.

This nosode can be very useful not only in chronic neuralgias, which persist in spite of removal of all the teeth, and in trigeminal neuralgias of the second and third branches, but it can also be used in bone conditions generally and in periosteal prob- lems to good effect, possibly in combination with Mercurius Iodatus Ruber, Asafoetida and Kalmia.

The use of this nosode can also unlock a curative action in other conditions origi- nating from the neural-diffusion fields or in concomitant sinusitis etc. Combination with Procainum (q.v.) is effective.

The attenuations of this sarcode are prepared from bone from various locations and separated from all soft tissue, taken from healthy pigs (Sus scrofa domesticus).

The main indications are:

Osteomalacia. Rickets. Osteoporosis. Sudeck’s atrophy. Exostoses. Periostitis.

The attenuations of this sarcode are prepared from the petrous part of the temporal bone, taken from a healthy pig (Sus scrofa domesticus).

The main indications are:

Otosclerosis. Tinnitus. Hearing impairment. Other impregnation and degeneration phases of the inner ear.

The mother tincture is prepared from the dried leaves of the plant Orthosiphon arisatus [Blume] Miquel, synon. Orthosiphon stamineus. N.O. Labiatae.

Recommended in gout, and calculi of bladder and kidneys.

The attenuations are prepared from Orotic acid, C₅H₄N₂O₄ · H₂O, MW: 174.1.

Orotic acid plays a part in important intermediate syntheses. It is produced from ureido-succinic acid (among other substances), by reaction with the intermediate stage: dihydro-orotic acid, and by subsequent DPN-dependent dihydrogenation. This reaction has been demonstrated in animal tissue and bacteria. As well as in milk, di- hydro-orotic acid is found in significant quantities in yeast extracts. Dihydro-orotic acid probably also plays a part in the synthesis of purine, as in the case of the syn- thesis of the pyramidine ring, which proceeds from α-ureido-succinic acid, (car- bamyl-aspartic acid). The latter is produced by a reaction of aspartic acid with car- bamyl phosphate, discovered by Lipmann. Thus earlier discoveries may be ex- plained, according to which the ureid carbon of citrullin can change to ureido-suc- cinic acid, orotic acid and the pyramidine bases of the nucleic acids. (Lowenstein and Cohen, according to Leuthardt.)

Dihydro-orotic acid reacts with 5-Phosphoribosyl-pyrophosphate, pyrophosphate being split off by the nucleotide-pyrophosphorylase, and conveyed to the oritidine, and oridine originates through the decarboxylisation of the latter. Thus Orotic Acid can be of use in impregnation phases, and also in liver damage.

A proving of this substance was conducted in the winter and spring of 1994, by Dr. David Riley. The results offer new information not present in the first edition of Dr. Reckeweg’s Materia medica which dealt primarily with the role of Orotic acid as an intermediate syntheses and its usefulness in treating liver disease.

Congruent symptoms with Dr. Reckeweg:

• abdominal pain and tenderness
• irritability
