 Homeopathic Remedies and the Flu Season
by Blair Lewis
The flu can range from mild discomfort to incredible misery
and intense pain. As a homeopath for over 20 years, I have
always been pleased with the positive results that homeopathic
medicine can offer.
During the flu season, it is important to find the remedy
that matches the symptoms that you are experiencing. In the
following paragraphs, I will give you brief glimpses of remedies
commonly used to prevent or resolve the flu. Greater detail
can be found in homeopathic books on acute ailments. Usually,
1 or 2 remedies is the most that would be required. The common
dose is 4-8 pellets per dose, usually taken every 4-6 hours
as needed.
Please honor your common sense and your doctor's advice.

Homeopathic Remedies for Flu
Oscillococcinum(TM) 200c
This is the number one remedy for preventing the flu &
resolving it in the early stage.
Aconite 30c
If you suddenly get deeply chilled or highly overheated and
then you just know that you are going to get sick, then Aconite
will help you. It is used to prevent the onset of illness
after a sudden exposure to brisk cold winds the leaves you
with a feeling of impending doom of illness.
Arsenicum Album 30c
This remedy has restlessness with weakness. You cannot stand
lying in bed for one more minute and yet as soon as you take
2 steps away from the bed you realize you are too weak to
go any further.
Baptisia
30c
Restless mind with "lifeless" body. Sore aching
muscles with rapid collapse. No energy.
Bryonia 30c
Feels worse with the slightest movement. Sleep like a hibernating
bear.
Eupatorium
Perfoliatum 30c
Soreness and aching of the entire body, which impels one to
change position, but without relief. Shattering cough that
hurts in the head and chest.
Gelsemium
30c
This is the classic flu remedy, it presents the most common
symptoms of the flu: chilliness, tiredness, chills up the
spine, mental dullness.
Veratrum Album 30c
When you get chilled and cannot re-warm yourself, this is
the remedy for you. Besides feeling deeply chilled, Veratrum
is also helpful for profound prostration, faintness, excessive
evacuations with vomiting or diarrhea. It will warm up those
icy cold limbs.
