OLEANDER - DL

Indication

Oleander is a potent homoeopathic medicine derived from leaves of Nerium odorum (Rose-laurel), shrub belonging to the Apocynaceae family. This medicine acts primarily on the nervous system, skin, and heart, offering remarkable results in cases of paralysis, skin eruptions, and emotional dullness. It is especially suited for conditions marked by cramp-like contractions, hemiplegia, delayed mental faculties, and violent skin itching with numbness. Characteristic sensations include weakness, coldness in limbs, double vision, and eruptions that bleed or ooze with the slightest friction.
