EUPATORIUM PURPURIUMLiquid

Eupatorium purpureum is a significant homoeopathic medicine prepared from the fresh root of Eupatorium purpureum belonging from Compositae (Asteraceae) family. It is known for its deep action on the urinary system, bones, and lower back, especially where there is irritation or inflammation of the kidneys, bladder, or reproductive organs. It proves highly beneficial in gravel, urinary retention, strangury, and renal dropsy, along with bone-deep aches that are often associated with chills and fever. The medicine has a distinctive upward direction of pain, and is suited for both acute and chronic conditions involving kidneys, urinary tract, reproductive organs, and intermittent fevers.
