Bronchus Suis – Bronchial Tube

The attenuations of this sarcode are prepared from the fresh bronchi of a healthy pig (Sus scrofa domesticus).

Emphysema. Bronchial asthma, chronic bronchitis. Congestions of capillary cir- culation.

The Bronchus sarcode should also be used concurrently in treatment of chronic catarrh of smokers, in order to adjust the body’s defences against the damage caused by the carcinogen benzopyrine, contained in tobacco smoke. This assumes a pre- cancerous state, which is generally asymptomatic.

Where tumour-formation has taken place, the simple sarcode may still develop a certain stimulant action, but in such cases the nosodes are better-indicated (q.v.).
