Tuberculinum is a homeopathic remedy made from animal strains, more specifically from the culture of bovine or human mycobacterium tuberculosis, which causes tuberculosis. It is especially recommended in cases of psychological and somatic imbalances. However, it can also treat several acute and chronic infections.
Tuberculinum is prescribed in cases of angina manifested by inflammation of the tonsils, bronchitis and nasopharyngitis. It is also used to treat allergic colds such as hay fever or pollinosis, seromucosal otitis and cough. It also provides relief for people who suffer from asthma.
