Fever

Fever

(Mainly mesenchymal reaction phase)

Fever is a sign that the defensive system of the organism is engaged in a feverish struggle with homotoxins. Fever, therefore, should not be suppressed symptomatically but the biotherapeutics indicated (Gripp-Heel, Traumeel S, Arnica-Heel, Belladonna- Homaccord and, in particular, also Echinacea compositum (forte) S) are to be administered daily s.c., i.m. and possibly also i.v., so long as the fever persists. Lwoff demonstrated that viruses are destroyed  solely by a rise in temperature (by splitting the Iysosome membrane with the consequent fermentative decomposition of the virus) (Biologische Medizin No. 1, 1973, p. 172). R. Siegert (Marburg) recommends: “In no case of feverish virus infection should the body be set back with antipyretics or hormones of the steroid group” (Med. Welt 24, No. 29/30, 1973).
