LAC FELINUMLiquid

Lac felinum is a rare yet deeply acting homoeopathic medicine derived from the milk of the domestic cat (Felis catus). Known for its profound effects on the nervous system, sensory organs, emotional states, and female reproductive health, Lac felinum is particularly beneficial for individuals experiencing mental hypersensitivity, ciliary neuralgia, visual disturbances, and pelvic discomfort. Its action is marked by sharp, often neuralgic pains, emotional lability, and physical sensitivity, making it suitable for a wide range of psychosomatic and functional disorders.
