Clinical notes
Because of the individual constituents of Traumeel, the medication can be offered for the following conditions:

1. Inflammatory musculoskeletal conditions:
   (a) traumatic (e.g. sprains, dislocations, contusions, and effusions)
   (b) degenerative joint disease with inflammatory components (e.g. osteoarthritis of the hip, knee, and small joints; and spondylosis with or without discogenic disease and its complications)
   (c) periarticular disorders (e.g. injuries of tendons, tendovaginitis, styloiditis, epicondylitis, bursitis, and rotator cuff syndrome)
2. Infective: acute and chronic otitis media, sinusitis, abscesses of the sweat glands (sudoriparous abscesses), furuncles, carbuncles, mastitis, and paradontosis.
3. Cutaneous disorders: fistular suppurations, eczema, dermatitis, lichen planus, intertrigo, impetigo, and incision wounds.
4. Cerebral contusions and concussions (acute).
5. Others: gangrene.

Note: The role of Traumeel in inflammation is specific and far reaching because of its various constituents. Inflammation has 6 pathophysiological stages: neurogenic, vascular, exudative, neutrophil migration, lymphocyte migration, and resorption and reconstruction.

Because of the homeopathic constituents, it is thought that the various ingredients in Traumeel have both a synergistic and a complementary relationship with each other in their action on the pathophysiological and clinical course of inflammation. For example, Aconitum napellus modulates and has an action on the first stage of inflammation (i.e. the neurogenic phase); at the same time, it paves the way for the constituents active in the vascular phase, such as Arnica, Hamamelis, Millefolium, Belladonna, and Hypericum. These constituents will, in turn, facilitate the action of Bellis perennis, which is active in the next exudative phase, and so forth. Mercurius solubilis and Hepar sulfuris influence neutrophil migration; Echinacea angustifolia and Echinacea purpurea, lymphocyte migration; and Calendula and Symphytum, resorption and reconstitution.

Apart from this synergistic action of the constituents, they also have a complementary effect. They are developed to have a functional tropism for the different stages of inflammation and an organ tropism for the different tissues affected by inflammation, such as muscles, bones, tendons, ligaments, vessels, nerves, and soft tissues. Therefore, Traumeel can be used in inflammation of several organs and tissues.

Inflammation manifests clinically as the typical signs of heat, redness, swelling, pain (i.e. calor, rubor, tumor, and dolor), and loss of function.
For calor, rubor, and tumor, Aconitum, Hamamelis, Millefolium, Bellis perennis, Belladonna, and Arnica will stabilize the vascular permeability and will prevent venous stasis.
Aconitum, Arnica, Chamomilla, and Hypericum perforatum are responsible for the analgesia in dolor.
Echinacea purpurea and Echinacea angustifolia, Mercurius solubilis, and Hepar sulfuris are antisuppurative; Calendula, Arnica montana, Echinacea purpurea, and Symphytum officinale promote wound healing and callus formation in the restitution and reintegration phase.

Lack of reaction, chronic skin diseases, e.g. acne, eczema, seborrhoea, pruritus. Based    on   the    individual          homoeopathic                          constituents of                Tonsilla      compositum, therapeutic possibilities result for increasing the bodily defences in exudative diathesis dysontogenesis in lymphatic children, dystrophia, adiposogenitalis, post-encephalitic residues, erythema nodosum et multiforme, toxic exanthema, elephantiasis, empyema, and    also    in   therapeutical    damage    of    various   kinds   such   as granulopenia, agranulocytosis and leukaemia (in this case daily at first), further, for induratio penis plastica, sclerodermia, chronic gout and primary chronic polyarthritis as auxiliary remedy, as well as in the early stage of neoplasm phases, due to its effect in activating the connective tissue. Tonsilla compositum shows clearly a combined action on  various systems of organs participating in the defence against homotoxins and the damage caused by them, when not only organ and tissue extracts but also nosodes, hormones, intermediary factors and homoeotherapeutic agents directed specifically towards regressive vicariation and against enzyme damage, bring about an overall action aimed at a powerful rise in the bodily defences in the widest variety of pathological conditions; in fact, not only in exudative diathesis and dysontogenesis in lymphatic children but also in toxic effects and the widest variety of therapeutical damage. In these cases the intermediate prescription is also recommended of preparations by means of which enzyme functions are again regulated, e.g. Coenzyme compositum ampoules and Ubichinon compositum ampoules; in serious cases of viral damage or danger from neoplasm also Glyoxal compositum, as auxiliary remedy also Thyreoidea compositum; for inflammation flaring up repeatedly but which does not lead to the dissolution of the retoxic phase, also Traumeel S, Engystol N and, in particular, Echinacea compositum (forte) S.

In such cases especially the alternating prescription or injection of the above- mentioned preparations is to be recommended, with the corresponding intermediate prescription of the oral therapeutic agents otherwise indicated, such as Lymphomyosot, Psorinoheel, Galium-Heel, Schwef-Heel, etc.

If intermediary homotoxins, due to enzyme blockages (therapeutical damage, of  retoxic causation) occur in profusion, this results from the appearance of cellular phases, in mild cases at first of impregnation phases; in serious cases, noticeable through symptoms of degeneration and possibly neoplasm phases. In these cases it is essential to recommend, in addition to Tonsilla compositum, possibly as early as on  the following day, Coenzyme compositum, and then possibly Thyreoidea compsitum, followed (after one to two days) by Ubichinon compositum, in order, through the re- stimulation of blocked enzyme systems, first to achieve the basic conditions for detoxication of the homotoxins.

The action of Tonsilla compositum should have subsided before a new injection takes place, especially after other preparations indicated, as mentioned above, have been interposed, when also Hepeel,Traumeel S, Engystol N, Psorinoheel N, Lymphomyosot, Nux vomica-Homaccord, Zeel, etc. can be considered, according to the syndrome in question. In addition, very good possibilities for combination are offered with suitable, pathogenetically indicated Nosodes (Tuberculinum-Injeel, Bacillinum-Injeel. etc.).

Preparations which provide powerful stimulation in general to the defensive system  are, in addition to other antihomotoxic agents which all act on the main defence system, in particular the following: Engystol N (especially also in viral diseases), Echinacea compositum (forte) S (generally and in neoplasia), Pulsatilla compositum (activator of the connective tissue), Galium-Heel (stimulation of the connective tissue function), Thyreoidea compositum (stimulates the basal metabolism), Traumeel S (reticulo-endothelium, total defensive system), Gripp-Heel (general prophylaxis in infections).

The dosage is adjusted according to the disease, the clinical picture and the stage of the illness: at first 1 ampoule i.m., s.c. (possibly with the patient’s own blood), i.d., possibly i.v. 2-3 times weekly. After the disorders have abated, for constitutional treatment, 1 ampoule once to twice weekly, possibly alternating with other suitable preparations (Lymphomyosot, Engystol N, Galium-Heel, Traumeel S, etc.). With this preparation, which contains vitamins, a fleeting, burning pain may occur upon the i.d. and s.c. injections.

Based on the individual homoeopathic constituents of Thyreoidea compositum, therapeutic possibilities result for the stimulation of the glandular functions as well as  of the defensive system and connective tissue function, including, in particular, in precancerous conditions, carcinomas and sarcomas, hypernephroma, progressive muscular dystrophy, myxoedema, induratio penis plastica, also as auxiliary remedy for adiposis, bronchial asthma, nevi, sclerodermia, ele-phantiasis, osteochondrosis, arthrosis.

Tumour formation is to be regarded as the end phase of all homotoxicoses, when the organism, as a result of the serious enzyme disturbances and mutagenic damage of the DNA in the affected tissues, can find no other solution but to condense the homotoxins in the neoplasm (in the “ash tray” principle). Possibly, especially in a  further attack by intermediary and exogenic homotoxins (including sutoxins), the organism can attempt to decompose the neoplasm by means of ulceration. A feasible method of curing cancer lies in the conversion of neoplasm phases in toto into reaction phases.

As the tests over many years with tissue extracts, catalysts, homoeopathic remedies of stimulative action and hormones applied in the reversal effect have shown, a lowering of the homotoxin level can be achieved for the organism by other means, i.e. not by destructive but through constructive, enzyme-regenerating therapy, so that the genetically established possibilities for the synthesis of reparative enzymes, especially in biological therapy (particularly with the Composita preparations) can produce their full effect, in this way really preparing and extending the possibilities of a biological cancer cure. In this connection, especially Thyreoidea compositum is a very important preparation which, in association with Hepar compositum, Coenzyme compositum, Ubichinon compositum and possibly also Glyoxal compositum, can lead to astonishing results (in addition to Galium-Heel, Psorinoheel N, Lymphomyosot, Traumeel S, etc.). In the treatment of neoplasm phases, the neoplasm should not be placed so much in the foreground as the causal toxin level and the damage to the defensive system

caused by homotoxins, including, in particular, to the cellular respiration and genetic material which, by means of stimulative catalysts, intermediary products and tissue preparations, as included in the various Composita preparations, may still be influenced therapeutically.

In the treatment, furthermore, not only the objective research findings and the most extensive laboratory findings are to be taken into consideration, but also the subjective symptoms of the patient are significant. As a result, often a conversion to regressive vicariation can be seen which, in the treatment of the cellular phases, is of such decisive significance.

Thyreoidea compositum, in addition to Galium-Heel, Psorinoheel, Lymphomyosot (administered orally as well as parenterally), and further in addition to Engystol N, Traumeel S, and in particular also in addition to Coenzyme compositum, Ubichinon compositum and Glyoxal compositum, because of its stimulative effect and intensity of action directed to the induction of blocked enzymes, is one of the most important preparations in the treatment of dedifferentiation phases.

In struma, in addition to Thyreoidea compositum, also Struma nodosa-Injeel or Struma cystica-Injeel is indicated.

The dosage is adjusted according to the disease, the clinical picture and the stage of the illness: for hypofunction of the thyroid gland, as well as other glands with internal secretions, at first 1 ampoule i.m., s.c., i.d., possibly i.v. 3 times weekly, otherwise 1 ampoule once to twice weekly, alternating with auxiliary remedies.

Composition: 2.2 ml containing: Thalamus opticus suis D8, Corpus pineale suis D8, Glandula supra-renalis suis D10, Viscum album D10, Adenosinum-3′,5′-cyclophosphoricum D6 22 mg each.

Indications: As adjuvant therapy in the treatment of degenerative and neoplastic disease.

Contraindications: Viscum album containing products should not be used in persons with known allergies to mistletoe, in cases of chronic granulomatous and auto-immune diseases, and in cases of hyperthyroidism with an unbalanced metabolic condition. In acute inflammatory and highly feverish conditions, discontinue treatment until the inflammation and fever have disappeared.

Side effects:

• A minor increase in the body temperature, localized inflammatory reactions around the site where the subcutaneous injection was given as well as transient insignificant inflations of regional lymph nodes are harmless.
• Occasionally, veins may respond, presenting inflammatory irritative symptoms. A temporary interruption of the therapy will be necessary in that case.
• In the presence of an intolerance to mistletoe, there are rare cases where local or general allergic reactions or reactions similar to allergies, such as a generalised itchiness, urticaria, rash, inflation in the face (Quincke’s edema), shivering fits, dyspnea, sudden fall in blood pressure, shock, may occur; such reactions will require a discontinuation of the drug and an immediate medical treatment.
• In rare cases, an activation of inflammations may occur (e.g. chronic sinusitis, apical granulomas).

Interactions with other medication: None known.

Dosage: Standard dosage: Adults (and children 12 yrs. and older): 1 ampoule 1 to 3× weekly. Thalamus compositum injection solution may be administered by the s.c., i.d., i.m. or i.v. route.

Pharmacological notes

• Thalamus opticus suis: mental inertia, loss of initiative, and indifference.¹²
• Corpus pineale suis: neoplasia.³
• Glandula suprarenalis suis: adynamia and adrenal exhaustion.³⁴
• Viscum album: cancerous conditions¹²⁵ and chronic rheumatic pains⁵⁻⁷
• Adenosinum-3′,5′-cyclophosphoricum: cellular energy deficit³⁴ and chronic fatigue syndrome.⁴

Clinical notes Because of the individual constituents of Thalamus compositum, the medication can be used for auxiliary treatment of neoplasms, degenerative diseases, and chronic rheumatic pains.

In neoplasia, especially as the disease progresses, atrophy of the adrenal glands is observed, as are necrotic foci in the region of the nucleus pallidus and the corpus striatum (pallidostriatum) of the thalamus. These areas of the thalamus are the centers of thalamic control in numerous basic vital functions (eg, the cybernetically controlled autonomic functions). In cancer, these functions also display alteration. This will lead to defective central control of stimuli to and from the central nervous system.

The pineal gland products possess certain antagonistic functions, such as growth inhibition, antitumour activity, and an influence on asthma and other conditions classified in the phases to the right of the regulation/compensation division. Through the process of neuroplasticity, structural thalamic changes are also observed in certain subjects with chronic pain, leading to increased pain sensitivity, such as allodynia. Thus, Thalamus compositum should experimentally be part of the strategy in the treatment of chronic rheumatic pain syndromes.

Based on the individual homoeopathic constituents of Testis compositum, therapeutic possibilities result for the stimulation of the organ functions in dystrophia adiposogenitalis (men), ejaculatio praecox, impotentia virilis, enuresis nocturna, progressive muscular dystrophy, conditions of exhaustion, induratio penis plastica, osteomalacia (men), diabetes mellitus and for various other metabolic disturbances, also as auxiliary remedy in hepatic damage as well as geriatric remedy. Promotes regressive vicariation.

The range of action of Testis compositum extends to the male sex glands and, in combination with the stimulating action on various organ and glandular functions, and in joint action with homoeopathic single remedies, brings about an improvement in the sexual functions, activating the connective tissue (e.g. by means of cortisone in the reversal effect), as well as exerting a stimulating effect on the overall physical and mental function and with revitalizing factors (in impotentia coeundi and disturbances of the sexual capacity), with trace element action and catalytic effects (Vitamin C), resulting in a broad combination effect in the treatment of the widest variety of organic diseases and functional disorders. In this connection, the additional administration (alternating injections) of suitable Composita, e.g. in degenerative diseases and enzyme blockages, such as Coenzyme compositum, Ubichinon compositum, possibly also Glyoxal compositum, on the other hand also, for the improvement of the organ functions, Hepar compositum (stimulation of the detoxicating hepatic function), Cor compositum and Placenta compositum (circulatory and cardiac functions), Solidago compositum S (renal function) and especially Cerebrum compositum (stimulation of the cerebral and neural functions) leads to the lowering of the homotoxin level and, therefore, of the causal factors of the illness.

Testis compositum, therefore, should be administered not only for the abatement of masculine tonicity and the disorders arising from this such as prostatic adenoma, hypertonia, peripheral circulatory disturbances and disorders of the hepatic function, but also as intermediate remedy for affections in the sphere of degenerative phases, possibly with Thyreoidea compositum in pronounced neoplasm phases, in which cases this therapy should be started at the earliest possible moment.

The repeated alternation of various Composita (injection preparations) with various indications appropriate to the glandular and organ functions in question, especially the preparation Testis compositum ampoules, opens up the widest variety of therapeutical possibilities (in addition to oral therapeutic agents such as Hepeel, Populus compositum SR, Psorinoheel, Aurumheel N, Lymphomyosot, Vertigoheel, etc.). For osteochondrosis with accompanying disorders, neuralgia, etc. in addition to Discus compositum, biotherapeutic-antihomotoxic agents such as Traumeel S, Zeel, etc. are indicated in the widest variety of forms of application, and for hypertonia, in general, Rauwolfia compositum.

If the stimulating action alone should not be sufficient, for the purpose of far-reaching stimulation of the detoxicating system, not only of the lymphatic apparatus but also of the suprarenal glands, and especially of the connective tissue function, also intermediate injections of

Tonsilla compositum are indicated.

The dosage is adjusted according to the disease, the clinical picture and the stage of the illness: at the start of treatment 1 ampoule i.m., s.c., i.d., possibly i.v. 3 times weekly; after improvement only 1 ampoule once to twice weekly, alternating with suitable auxiliary remedies.

With this preparation, which contains vitamins, after s.c. injections a fleeting burning pain may occur.

Based on the individual homoeopathic constituents of Tartephedreel, therapeutic possibilities result for the treatment of catarrh of the respiratory tract, e.g. Iaryngitis, tracheitis, bronchiolitis, especially with a decrescent tendency, bronchitic asthma.

Adjuvant in (broncho)pneumonia, tubercular and pleuritic irritating coughs, catarrh of the other mucosa, including gastric, intestinal and of the urogenital system.

Catarrh (flow of mucus) aids detoxication. The same applies for the influenza virus which, through the inflammatory process, is broken down and eliminated. Catarrh, therefore, should not be suppressed but its course promoted and accelerated, in order to purify the toxic condition, e.g. in bronchial asthma.

The individual constituents of Tartephedreel give rise to the anti-inflammatory, excretory and detoxicating action of the preparation. The dosage is adjusted according to the disease, the clinical picture and the stage of the illness: for continuous treatment

10 drops 3(-4) times daily. In acute disorders, massive initial-dose therapy with alternating remedies, 10 drops every 15 minutes until an improvement is observed.  The following prescription has proved effective in bronchial asthma:

Husteel 5-8 drops at 8 a.m. and 4 p.m.

Tartephedreel 5-8 drops at 8 a.m. and 6 p.m.

Drosera-Homaccord 5-8 drops at 12 noon and 8 p.m. or all 3 preparations taken together 2-4-6 times daily.

Based on the individual homoeopathic constituents of Tanacet-Heel, therapeutic possibilities result for the expulsion of worms, with secondary, toxic symptoms, tics, also chorea minor during worm removal (also idiopathic), cramp, loss of appetite and Iycorexia alternating (Tanacet-Heel stimulates the appetite).

The helminths are not killed by Tanacet-Heel, but the homotoxic terrain which is palatable to the worms (excretion of homotoxins in the intestine) is changed. Tanacet- Heel should always be administered with alternating remedies, e.g. with Nervoheel for tearfulness, exhaustion, discomfort; Vomitusheel for nausea and sickness; Hepeel for salivation, disorders of the hepatic functions and anorexia; Spascupreel for intestinal spasms (helminthic coil), intestinal colic, Nux vomica-Homaccord (for ileus arising from the helminthic coil – ascarides); Schwef-Heel for cleansing the terrain; Diarrheel S for dyspeptic phenomena and toxin adsorption.

Based on the individual homoeopathic constituents of Syzygium compositum, therapeutic possibilities result for the complementary treatment of diabetes and the associated disturbances to health. A strict distinction should be made in this  connection between the comparatively innocuous senile diabetes, which can be regulated, to a great extent, dietetically, and the prognostically usually considerably more unfavourable malignant juvenile diabetes which, in principle, is based on serious enzyme or system damage of retoxic causation (hypophyseal-adrenal system, pancreatic and hepatic enzymes and probably also the thyroid gland). The first form, which represents the overwhelming majority of cases, can be effectively influenced by biotherapeutic means, namely with:

1. Regulation of the diet, i.e. strict prohibition of the ingestion of pork (including sausages of all kinds, bacon, ham, lard, etc.), possibly a daily ration of oat flakes (only 1-2 dessertspoonsful or a small plate of porridge or gruel in the morning); as meat mainly beef, mutton, poultry; fish and egg dishes and, first and foremost, vegetables (varieties of cabbage, salads, etc.), taking into consideration the usual calorie charts. Never overeat, when feeling satiated, stop immediately!
2. Stimulation of the organ and enzyme functions with specifically oriented homoeopathic remedies, enzyme factors and organ extracts (in not too high a dosage, as the medium to higher potencies show a considerably better action with constitutionally far-reaching subsequent effects).

The therapeutical efforts can be considerably aided by intermediate injections of Hepar compositum, further by enzyme-stabilizing injections such as Coenzyme compositum

ampoules, Ubichinon compositum ampoules, possibly also Thyreoidea compositum and Tonsilla compositum ampoules (stimulation of the defensive system), likewise by Hepeel, Chelidonium-Homaccord, Momordica compositum, Ceanothus-Homaccord, etc. (the latter possibly by oral medication). As must be assumed on the basis of cases shown by the anamnesis to be previously affected, the malignant juvenile diabetes is founded on earlier serious (re)toxic damage (including from chemotherapeutic agents, often through sulphonamides which have been used in the treatment of angina tonsillaris and acute reaction phases of other kinds). In these cases, serious disturbances of the regulatory system are present, not only of the adrenal system and pancreas but also of the central hormonal or neurohormonal control (Claude Bernard’s diabetic puncture, from which it emerges that also influencing the microbial flora can lead to diabetes). Therefore, in general, one will not be able to manage without continuous insulin injections. In these cases, also the regular consumption of gruel is  to be implicitly recommended, as oats obviously contain an antidiabetogenic (antiketogenic) principle. In juvenile diabetes, every attempt should be made, by the administration of Syzygium compositum (orally), possibly in addition Galium-Heel and Psorinoheel as well as the preparations Ubichinon compositum, Coenzyme compositum ampoules, possibly also Thyreoidea compositum and  Tonsilla compositum ampoules in alternating injections (in addition to Traumeel S, Engystol N, Hepeel and possibly Lymphomyosot as well as suitable suis-organ preparations), to achieve, through regressive vicariation, i.e. intercurrently occurring infectious diseases or reaction phases such as angina tonsillaris, influenzal infections, etc., a biologically correct restoration of the degeneration phase which, otherwise, would proceed deleteriously.

In diabetics, practically every reaction phase of the acute or chronic type (e.g. fistular suppurations, the development of eczema and other skin diseases, etc., as well as influenza, angina, etc.) represents an alternative phase through which the intermediary homotoxins are eliminated. Therefore, such reaction (alternative) phases should not be suppressed, since otherwise an acute transmission to the catastrophic degeneration phase (coma diabeticum) would be imminent. Necessitous times have demonstrated reliably that senile diabetes, frequently, and possibly entirely, determined genetically, in the end merely represents a biologically advantageous defensive mechanism of the organism, of homotoxic causation, in order to eliminate the surplus supply of nutrient constituents (particularly in the form of pork) in the simplest way, i.e. through the intermediary product glucose, which in the organism (generally as energy carrier) is easily transportable and always accessible. When diabetes mellitus is considered from this point of view, the improvement achieved through suitable dietetic measures becomes self-explanatory, when in no way should the restriction of carbohydrates (particularly in the form of vegetables) be placed first and foremost, but above all, the omission of foodstuffs considered to be of high calorie content, and of substances containing toxins which might encourage the tendency to acidification associated with diabetes (particularly meat substances in any form). At the same time, in the benign forms of diabetes there is usually also a tendency to arteriosclerosis, which can also  be treated with Syzygium compositum, when preparations such as Cralonin, Melilotus- Homaccord, Aurumheel N drops and injection preparations such as Rauwolfia compositum (hypertonic) can be interposed. If diabetic patients undergo disturbances of the peripheral circulation, possibly even with gangrene formation, injections of Placenta compositum, Circulo-Injeel and as single remedy Natrium pyruvicum-Injeel are indicated.

Diabetes must, like all defensive reactions to toxins in general, be called an “illness” and be considered in the total biological picture of the organisms and not, perhaps, as a localized disturbance of the pancreas. This leads to the therapeutical action on the most varied factors, particularly in the form of a correct adjustment of nutrition (pork in any form is strictly forbidden) as well as on the appropriate auxiliary factors (hepatic

function, activation of the connective tissue), when Syzygium compositum represents an important preparation for long-term medication.

The most effective injection for diabetes mellitus has proved to be Coenzyme compositum ampoules; for diabetic gangrene, in addition to Circulo-Injeel, in particular Natrium pyruvicum-Injeel (1 ampoule s.c. 3 times weekly).

Pharmacological and clinical notes

Sulfur (sulphur)

Reagent in all chronic diseases, e.g. for irritating, weeping cutaneous eruptions, malodorous sudoresis of the armpits, pruritus, hot flushes, scrofulous glandular swellings. Burning and irritation of the skin, worsening in the warmth of the bed, is characteristic.

Daphne mezereum (daphne)

Herpes-like, irritating dermatoses; neuralgia with great sensitivity to cold air. Arsenicum album (white arsenic)

Eczema, dermatitis; urticaria with burning, irritation, restlessness; acne vulgaris, psoriasis, pityriasis, lichen ruber planus.

Pix liquida (wood tar) Irritating eczema.

Caladium seguinum (caladium)

Pruritus of various origins, e.g. pruritus vulvae. Capsicum annuum (capsicum)

Herpes labialis, glossitis aphthosa et ulcerosa, plethora, burning pains on the skin and mucosa.

Based on the individual homoeopathic constituents of Sulfur-Heel, therapeutic possibilities result for the treatment of eczema, dermatitis, dermatosis, dermatomycosis, urticaria, neurodermatitis, crusta lactea (in addition to Graphites- Homaccord, Abropernol, etc. as well as Traumeel S ointment); strophulus infantum (Apis_Homaccord, Psorinoheel, Schwef-Heel, etc.), pruritus of all origins, including pruritus vulvae (in addition to Mercurius-Heel S, Lamioflur, Galium-Heel, Psorinoheel, etc.), pruritus in varicose eczema (in addition to Cruroheel S, Hamamelis-Homaccord, etc.). Auxiliary remedy for scabies and allergic reactions (Engystol N, Galium-Heel, etc.), insect stings (Apis_Homaccord, etc.).

Morning diarrhoea (in exchange for Schwef-Heel, in addition to Veratrum-Homaccord and Diarrheel S).

Sulfur-Heel, compared with Schwef-Heel, has a broader effect. The dosage is adjusted according to the disease, the clinical picture and the stage of the illness: 1 tablet 3-4 times daily. For acute disorders, massive initial-dose therapy: 1 tablet dissolved on the tongue every 15 minutes.
