Reason for use

A subject for this remedy does not present so clear and white a complexion as is called for by Calc. carb . The appearance of the patient is more of a dirty white or brownish color.

Mental.-- Mental anxiety, with all the troubles. Desire to change the position often. Is often useful in cases of disappointed love.

Children.-- Fontanelles remain open a long time. Very soft thin skulls, so that they almost crack like paper when pressed upon. Can't hold the head up, nurse is obliged to support it. Troubles during teething; slow dentition with cold tumors and emaciation; cough and much rattling in the chest. Oozing from the bloody navel. Children don't learn to walk; flabby, emaciated; great desire to nurse all the time.
