Aconitum Napellus is a homeopathic remedy made from the aconite or monk's helmet, a plant from the Ranunculaceae family.

This plant grows at high altitudes, particularly in the Pyrenees, and is very poisonous even in very small doses.

Its mother tincture is made from whole plants harvested at the end of flowering.

To make a homeopathic remedy, it is diluted infinitesimally and then dynamised.

Although Aconitum Napellus is primarily recommended for fevers, it can also be used to treat many other conditions.

Infectious and inflammatory syndromes

Aconitum Napellus is recommended for coughs, angina, bronchitis, laryngitis and rhinolaryngitis.

It also helps to treat infections accompanied by fever and a rapid heart rate.

It is particularly suitable for people who have a fever, are very thirsty but can only drink small amounts of water, and are anxious and restless.

Treatment with this remedy is also indicated if your skin becomes dry and red and your face becomes hot while your feet and hands remain cold.

Neurology

Nerve pain that worsens during a cold spell and leads to numbness can be effectively treated with Aconitum Napellus.

It also helps to get rid of tingling sensations.
