HYDROPHOBINUMLiquid

Hydrophobinum is a valuable and unique homoeopathic medicine prepared from the saliva of a rabid dog, often known by the synonym Lyssin. This medicine is known for its deep action on the central nervous system, mucous membranes, and the sexual and emotional spheres. Hydrophobinum exhibits strong anti-miasmatic properties and is especially indicated in conditions arising from suppressed emotions, nervous hypersensitivity, convulsions, erratic behaviors, and hydrophobic tendencies. It is particularly helpful in post-animal bite symptoms, violent nervous affections, and ailments resulting from emotional trauma or suppressed sexual energy. The medicine also shows a marked influence on the throat, respiratory tract, and mental faculties, often bringing relief in both acute and chronic nervous and neurogenic states.
