FERRUM PHOSPHORICUMLiquid

Ferrum phosphoricum is a powerful homoeopathic medicine prepared from phosphate of iron, known for its marked action in the early stages of febrile and inflammatory conditions, especially of the respiratory tract, head, and circulatory system. It occupies a therapeutic position between the active inflammation, and the sluggishness. It is particularly suited to anæmic, sensitive, nervous individuals, with a false plethora, a tendency to flushing, and susceptibility to chest troubles. It is also beneficial in acute exacerbations of tuberculosis, first-stage infections, and bright red hemorrhages from any orifice.
