Reason for use

Eupatorium perfoliatum is of use in rheumatic affections accompanied by perspiration and great soreness of the muscles and bones.

The intense, intolerable aching deep in the muscles and bones, with a sensation of soreness as if the parts had been beaten or the bones broken, < by motion and in the morning, makes a clear picture that suggests Eupatorium, under whatever circumstances it may be found.

Compatible with Nux vomica and Sepia, and both follow well.
