Materia Medica de A a Z

EPIPHEGUS VIRGINIANA = OROBANCHE (epiph)

"I do not propose to adopt the usual way by beginning with /Aconite/ and ending with /Zincum/, but to follow the bent of my inclinations, or, as it is sometimes expressed, the movings of the spirit; and may I not here invoke the aid of the spirits of the immortal Hahnemann, Boenninghausen and the galaxy of bright names that adorn the fair page of the history of Homoeopathy to help me."

First: NUX VOMICA (nux-v)

Previus: TELLURIUM (Tell)

Next: LAUROCERASUS (Laur)

Cures headaches coming on after a hard day's work, over-fatigue from work or excitement, what is often called "tired headache." Such cases are very frequent, find the patients volunteered to mention the fact that they always came on when they were "tired out." Of course one swallow does not make a summer, neither does one symptom always make unfailing indication for a remedy, but a symptom often verified is always a valuable leader to the totality of symptoms.

Epiphegus needs further proving.
