STROPHANTHUS HISPIDUS - MT

Indication

Strophanthus hispidus is a powerful homoeopathic medicine prepared from the tincture of its seeds. Known for its potent action on the heart, nervous system, and muscular structures, it is especially suited to conditions involving cardiac weakness, irregular pulse, nervous irritability, and digestive disturbances. It has a distinct affinity for the circulatory system, making it valuable in cases of dropsy, degenerative heart conditions, and breathlessness from slight exertion. This medicine also supports the gastrointestinal and urinary systems, particularly where symptoms arise following emotional strain or exhaustion.
