Owen Homoeopathics Veratrum 6C 120 pilules

Veratrum has traditionally been used for the symptomatic relief of violent vomiting with cramping and weakness especially where the face is pale and bluish and there is cold sweat and cold limbs.

Veratrum is a remedy to think of for gastrointestinal complaints, when there is violent retching, vomiting and profuse diarrhoea. These effects may come on suddenly, or progress during an acute illness. There is a sudden sinking of strength and vitality that results in rapid prostration, exhaustion or collapse. Symptoms can be accompanied with great cramping of the bowels, limbs and calves. Evacuations are copious and may be green, whether vomit, urine or stools. The person feels extreme coldness and their skin may appear tinged with blue. Veratrum is also a great fainting remedy.
