Capsicum anuum is a homeopathic remedy obtained from the garden pepper, more commonly known as "sweet peppers". This American plant of the Solanaceae family is characterized by red, yellow or green fruits depending on their ripeness. Thanks to a series of physico-chemical extractions from the fruit, a mother tincture is obtained which will then undergo successive dilutions to formulate the medicine used in homeopathy. It should be noted that Capsicum anuum is marketed in various formulations, although the most frequently used are granules.
