Eupatorium Cannabinum is used as a folk-remedy for the cleansing of the blood in diseases of the liver, bile and spleen. It contains a bitter substance, the glycoside Eu- patorin, also resins and tannins. It is also used as a fever-remedy: “it makes fever bearable”.

N.O. Myrtaceae.

The main indications are:

Influenza and influenzal catarrhs, tracheitis, laryngitis, bronchiolitis.

Apart from the feverish illnesses and catarrhs, there are herpetic eruptions on the skin with swollen lymph nodes, and rheumatic pains with a pricking sensation in the muscles and joints with nocturnal aggravation, tiredness and stiffness of the limbs.

Eucalyptus is also beneficial in symptoms of intestinal influenza with a burning sensation in the stomach and abdomen, great heat in the rectum, urging for stool, painful defaecation and violent diarrhoea with blood.

The German Monograph-Preparation Commission for the Homoeopathic Field of Therapy has, under the Preparation Monograph for Eucalyptus globulus, published the following indication(s) in the German Bundesanzeiger (German Federal Gazette) for eucalyptus: inflammations of the respiratory passages, the kidneys, and the urinary tract collection system.

The mother tincture is prepared from the whole fresh flowering aerial parts of Conyza canadensis [L.] Cronq., a native of North America, Europe and Central Asia. N.O. Compositae.

The main indications are:

Bright red spurting haemorrhages, aggravated by any motion. Haemoptysis. Metr- orrhagia.

Apart from haemorrhages, the symptomatology also includes headaches with ring- ing in the right ear and – localised particularly on the right side – burning in the eyes, pain in the right eye and increased mucous secretion from the nose, as well as epistaxis (of bright red blood).

Especially in rainy weather there can be pains in the right elbow and in the carpal bones and wrists, also rheumatic drawing pain in the right thumb, and a pain in the left ankle, worse when walking. Violent pains in the knees (in rainy weather) also speak for Erigeron.

Haemorrhages also occur in the gums. Profuse haemorrhage from a tooth-socket has also been observed, as have a bad taste in the mouth and a sensation of a plug in the pharynx.

Erigeron is particularly indicated in a wide variety of haemorrhages from the fe- male genitalia, when they occur in gushes and are associated with painful urination. The German Monograph-Preparation Commission for the Homoeopathic Field of Therapy has, under the Preparation Monograph for Conyza canadensis, published the following indication(s) in the German Bundesanzeiger (German Federal Gazette) for erigeron canadensis: bleeding of the uterus and urinary bladder; bleed- ing associated with haemorrhoids; inflammations of the stomach, liver and gallblad-

The mother tincture is prepared from the whole fresh plant, Equisetum hiemale L., which grows in damp woodlands and marshes of Europe and North America.

N.O. Equisetaceae.

The indications for Equisetum Hiemale are the same as for Equisetum Arvense, with one particular divergence. In Equisetum Hiemale, being an aquatic plant, not

only is the influence on the urinary system particularly clearly marked, but also the ill-effects of dampness and becoming wet.

See Equisetum Arvense

The German Monograph-Preparation Commission for the Homoeopathic Field of Therapy has, under the Preparation Monograph for Equisetum hiemale, published the following indication(s) in the German Bundesanzeiger (German Federal Gazette) for equisetum hiemale: diseases of the kidneys and urinary tract.

The mother tincture is prepared from the fresh, sterile shoots, gathered in late summer, of the plant Equisetum arvense L., a native of Europe, North Africa and North America. N.O. Equisetaceae.

The main indications are:

Cystitis, pyelitis. Copious discharge of mucus in the urine. Dull, raw pain in the bladder. Nephrolithiasis. Gravel in the urine. Nocturnal enuresis, associated with ir- ritation of the bladder.

All varieties of Equisetum act primarily on the connective tissue and the urinary tract. In the symptomatology we find renal pain, extending as far as the bladder and urethra. Urging to urinate with violent pains after urination, and passage of urine drop by drop are typical symptoms; there are also violent burning and cutting pains on urination. Retention of urine and strangury during pregnancy and after parturition are also pointers towards Equisetum. The pains are predominantly in the area of the right kidney and in the right loin, extend to the lower abdomen with urging to uri- nate, and are aggravated by movement, pressure and sitting down, and ameliorated in a lying position.
