HOMEOPATHY AND THE FLU

by Ken Oftedal, BSc, MDSKH

Prevention

Take Influenzinum 200C, Bacillinum 200C or Oscillococcinum 200C (also called Anas Barb) once a month during the flu season. If there is an epidemic of flu, take 30C three times a week.

Echinacea mother tincture will strengthen the immune system. Take some drops each day and increase threefold during a flu epidemic.

A good multivitamin and extra vitamin C are also helpful in the prevention of flu.

Start Phase of Flu (preferably use 200C)

There is a lookup facility on www.homeopathy.euni.org called Urgencies, where a search on flu will provide information on selecting the right remedy.

Aconite

For the first stages of flu symptoms after being exposed to a cold wind or getting chilled. Also when you have fever and chill, are restless with anxiety.

Bryonia

Every movement causes pain. You want to lie still. Painful dry cough. Headache and pains, Better from pressure, Worse from movement. Irritable and thirsty for cold drinks.

Camphora

Icy coldness, but do not want to be covered, although sensitive to cold. Desire for cold drinks. A state of sudden collapse. Desire for snacks and company during fever. Anxiety.

Eupatorium perfoliatum

Intense aching back, limbs and especially bones – which feel broken. Sore skin and muscles. Shivering chills. Thirst for cold water. Food, drink and bile may be vomited. Headache with nausea. Sore chest with cough.

Nux Vomica

Extreme chilliness. Shivery and unable to get warm despite heat. Fever, but freezing inside. Aching limbs and gastric problems. Nausea. Better from sleep, better from hot drinks, better from strong pressure, better from being left alone.

Gelsemium sempervirens

Aching tiredness and weakness, especially in muscles and limbs. Drowsy, dull, apathetic, dizzy and trembling. Heavy eyelids with bruising headache from the neck to head and forehead. Chill and heat. Not thirsty.

After Flu (200C)

Tuberculinum

This clears up symptoms after flu, especially when the lungs have been affected. Coughs are irritating, incessant and tickling. Great debility, weight loss and lack of appetite may be present. Three doses in 12 hours.

It may be necessary to follow up with one of the following:

China officinalis

Continued debility and chilliness. Anemic and weak with desire to stretch and move. Worse on alternate days.

Kali phosphoricum

General weakness with spasm. The slightest labor seems like heavy work.

Phosphoric acid

Chronic fatigue after flu. Better from warmth, better from sleep. Feels apathetic, dull, indifferent to everything. Low continued fevers.

Genus Epidemicus (200C)

In an epidemic this is the remedy that matches the collective symptoms of the disease among the population.

With the recent bird flu, the symptoms described by a survivor of the H5N1 virus are similar to those of the remedies: Antimonium tartaricum, Ipecacuanha and Sanguinaria.

Thus, these remedies should be examined for a match in any case of the flu caused by this virus. The remedy with the closest match should be used to treat the patient.

In the case of bird flu, there is a procedure on how anyone can make a remedy locally that will keep them alive. Further details on this may be obtained via www.homeopathy.euni.org.

Suppliers of Homeopathic Remedies

There are many suppliers the following are a few:

www.helios.co.uk

www.ainsworths.com

www.homeopathyworks.com

Taking Homeopathic Remedies

For complete details there is an introductory on-line course on www.homeopathy.euni.org.

Pills are melted on the tongue. Liquids remedies are dripped on the tongue.

Basically when symptoms of flu are felt, a potency of 200C is taken once. If no change is noted within an hour or less, the remedy is probably incorrect and another should be tried.

If there is a change for better or worse, wait until the change has passed. If you feel better, don’t take any more until you have a relapse. If no total change is noted, try another remedy.

Food or drink should not be consumed about 15 minutes prior to and after taking a remedy.

Further information regarding homeopathic treatment and courses can be obtained and appointments made by calling 41733 in Gibraltar, 952 89 64 24 or 652 555 993 in Spain, or sending an e-mail from www.homeopathy.euni.org, or to patients@euni.org.

Aconitum Napellus (acon)

(Aconite)

With Aconite, the causation is usually one or more of the following: chill (from a cold, dry wind), fright, shock, injury, surgical operation, and excessive heat (especially from the sun), leading to a very agitated mental and emotional state.

Case 1

A man aged 30 spent an evening in a hot room, then he walked home in rough and stormy weather. In the morning he woke up blind.

He was given Acon 3C. That night he perspired heavily and in the morning when he woke up he was no longer blind.

Case 2

After a warm Spring day followed by a cold evening a young woman caught a cold and the next day was sneezing violently and had a runny nose.

She took Acon 200C and her symptoms vanished within an hour, not to return.

Case 3

A child was suffering from watery diarrhoea. It was crying and complaining very much. The child was sleepless and was biting his fists.

He was given Aconite and his mental state calmed rapidly, but the diarrhoea was the same. The mother was asked to wait with giving any other remedy as the Aconite would probably cure the diarrhoea. And some time later it did.

Case 4

A healthy woman ate a good dinner. While reading afterwards, the letters danced before her eyes and the print became blurred. Then her face and nose became numb. Her pulse had risen to 120.

She was given one dose of Acon 1M. The numbness was gone in half an hour, the pulse at 72. She could see perfectly on closing either eye, but had dim vision with both eyes open. The sight was back to normal the next morning. She had a slight lightness of the head the remainder of the day.

Aconitum Napellus (acon)
(Monkshood)

Aconite is the main remedy for nipping colds in the bud. It is useful in the early stages of colds, fevers, and inflammations.

The complaint comes on suddenly, possibly from a cold, dry wind, shock, or fright (also from intensely hot summer weather). There may be a high fever with dry, burning heat. The skin is dry and hot and there is a burning thirst for cold water.

Only water does not taste bitter. The afflicted person is extremely restless and fearful, perhaps with fear of death for no reason.

The person is worse in the evening, especially around midnight. There may be a bursting headache; vomiting with nausea and thirst.

Coffee, cold drinks, cold food, milk and soup make the person feel better.

In Spain you can obtain Aconite from any pharmacy, which is the only place to obtain homeopathic remedies in this country. Otherwise it can be obtained by mail from Helios or Ainsworths in the UK, links to which can be found on www.homeopathy.euni.org.
