Vaccininum – Smallpox Vaccine

The attenuations of this nosode are prepared from smallpox vaccine (Lancy-Vaccina Sec).

In cases of over-reaction following smallpox vaccination, Vaccininum may be used in a combined injection with Variolinum. Otherwise it is indicated for headaches, exogenous depression, conjunctivitis, blepharitis, iritis, purulent rhinitis, rheumatic polyarthritis, rheumatic pareses, post-vaccinial nephritis with albumin- uria and haematuria, menorrhagia, chicken pox, and particularly in herpes zoster and herpes simplex (combined injection with Variolinum). Also in erysipelas, ab- scesses and acute eczema, praecordial pain, vasodilatation, stabbing chest-pains, want of appetite and in disgust at the smell or sight of food (Julian). May be used generally in severe toxic states and in septic illnesses.
