Dr. Reckeweg Calcarea Phosphorica

Calcarea Phosphorica is a homeopathic remedy prepared from calcium phosphate, an essential mineral component of bones and teeth. This remedy has profound action on growth, bone development, and recovery from illness. Calcarea Phosphorica is particularly indicated for growing children, especially those experiencing growing pains, and individuals recovering from acute illnesses. The typical patient is tall, lean, and thin rather than the typical Calcarea Carbonica stocky build. Children are discontented, fretful, and desire constant change - wanting to go out but becoming dissatisfied when they do. The remedy addresses slow, imperfect bone development with delayed fontanelle closure, curvature of spine (scoliosis), and susceptibility to fractures. Growing pains are characteristic - aching in bones and joints, particularly at night and during growth spurts. Calcarea Phosphorica treats chronic tonsillitis and adenoid problems in children. The remedy is valuable during teething, especially for difficult dentition with late tooth eruption. It addresses anemia and weakness after illness, particularly chronic debilitating conditions. School-age children who are dissatisfied, have difficulty concentrating, and become exhausted from school work benefit from this remedy. Headaches in school children, especially occuring after school, are characteristic. All symptoms typically worsen from cold, drafts, change of weather, during growth periods, from thinking of symptoms, and in spring, while improving from warm, dry weather and during summer. This 30C potency is the most commonly used potency for home treatment of acute conditions, providing balanced action and duration. Take 2-4 times daily or as needed.
