Ferrum Phosphoricum – Iron Phosphate

The attenuations are prepared from evaportaded aqueous Ferric phosphate.

The main indications are:

Feverish states. Otitis media. Acute polyarthritis. Pneumonia. Nocturnal enuresis and diurnal incontinence of urine, also irritation of the neck of the bladder. Hoarse- ness of singers. Aggravation at night.

Ferrum Phosphoricum is the main fever remedy in Schüssler’s therapy (Biochemic tissue-salts). Here we have the same characteristic features as in the other iron com- pounds, such as anaemia, haemorrhages, arterial disease, inflammations, distension and sclerosis of the blood-vessels in general, physical and mental slackness, nerv- ousness, exhaustion and rheumatic conditions, as well as acute rheumatism which makes its presence felt particularly at night.

The German Monograph-Preparation Commission for the Homoeopathic Field of Therapy has, under the Preparation Monograph for Ferrum phosphoricum, pub- lished the following indication(s) in the German Bundesanzeiger (German Federal Gazette) for ferrum phosphoricum: feverish, inflammatory diseases of the respira- tory organs; haemorrhages and their sequelae; rheumatic diseases of the spine and shoulder joints.
