ASARUM EUROPAEUMLiquid

Asarum europaeum is a valuable homoeopathic medicine prepared from the fresh plant or root of Asarum europaeum (commonly known as European Snake-root) of the Aristolochiaceae family. It is chiefly indicated in nervous hypersensitivity, excessive erethism, and coldness of body, especially in individuals with heightened sensibilities to touch, sound, and emotions. The medicine plays an important role in cases involving nervous deafness, asthenopia, and gastric disturbances from emotional or sensory overload. It is suited to sensitive, chilly patients with low vitality, especially where the slightest stimuli cause overreaction. Its action is also seen in catarrhal conditions, female complaints, and spasmodic pains.
