Drosera Rotundifolia is a carnivorous plant whose active ingredients are used in homeopathy to treat various diseases, especially those that affect the immune system and the ENT system. Coughs, laryngitis, rheumatology and joint diseases are all diseases that can be cured through the use of homeopathic remedies that include Drosera Rotundifolia.
ENT infections
Most microbial and viral infections that reach the respiratory system can be treated with homeopathy. Drosera Rotundifolia is commonly prescribed in the treatment of laryngitis, bronchitis, and tracheitis, all of which are characterized by coughing fits, especially at night. Although these 3 infections are different in some aspects, they have this common point which is to cause a cough.
Drosera Rotundifolia effectively clears the respiratory tract in the event of tracheitis or treats the bronchial tubes of bronchitis patients who have yellow and viscous sputum, sometimes even bloody. The treatment based on Drosera Rotundifolia for these 3 infections will be 5 capsules for one week after the cough.
Childhood diseases
In infants and young children, various infections can cause coughs leading to bouts of fever, choking and vomiting. These respiratory infections affect in most cases the upper respiratory tract of the respiratory system. Drosera Rotundifolia, due to its antiseptic and febrifuge properties, can be used to treat most respiratory diseases in infants, more specifically whooping cough and RSV infections known as bronchiolitis, but also asthma and pulmonary tuberculosis. Pertussis is a bacterial infection affecting the lower respiratory tract in infants and whose manifestations, such as coughing, are very severe causing bloody secretions.
After the incubation phase and the catarrhal phase, the patient has difficulty breathing and feels exhausted by choking attacks. Bronchiolitis is also an infection of the respiratory tract that affects infants, but this time caused by a virus. This infection is also characterized by violent coughing fits, which can be soothed with homeopathic treatment consisting mainly of Drosera Rotundifolia. Asthma, like previous respiratory infections, is another disease that can be relieved with the consumption of Drosera Rotundifolia if we follow the appropriate dosages. To treat these 3 childhood diseases, in particular RSV infections and whooping cough, the homeopath generally advises Drosera Rotundifolia 30 CH for 4 days at a rate of one dose per day to soothe coughs and cleanse the respiratory tract.
Drosera Rotundifolia in joint care
Drosera Rotundifolia is a homeopathic remedy used for its analgesic and antispasmodic properties, especially to relieve joint pain. Acute hip synovitis is one of the diseases that manifests itself as pain or a feeling of straining in the patient's joints.
That said, other joint ailments such as viral reactive arthritis can also be treated with Drosera Rotundifolia. The homeopathic remedy will be composed of 5 granules of Drosera Rotundifolia 9 CH or 7 CH to be taken in 2 times in the morning and evening for 7 days for an adjunctive homeopathic treatment and a cure of several months to avoid a relapse.
Tips for using Drosera Rotundifolia
In the treatment of respiratory or joint diseases, it is always recommended to consult a homeopath for the prescription of Drosera Rotundifolia. However, a few rules should be observed during the consumption of this remedy to ensure maximum effectiveness. Firstly, this homeopathic medicine should not be taken with meals.
It is also advisable not to take the dose of Drosera Rotundifolia with the consumption of tobacco, mint or coffee. As for the normal dosage, a tablespoon 2 to 3 times a day will be the recommended dosage for an adult while a child over 5 years old will only take one teaspoon in 3 or 5 doses in one day. Nevertheless, for sensitive subjects such as infants and the elderly, the advice of a homeopath is always desirable because in high doses, Drosera Rotundifolia becomes irritating.
