Aurum muriaticum
Gold(III) chloride · Gold chloride,Aurum chloratum · Mineral
Aurum mur. is best suited to those who are restless, easily depressed, sensitive to humiliation, and anxious about developing diseases. These feelings may be eased by company, but can spiral into suicidal thoughts if left unchecked. The remedy may be prescribed for heart conditions such as palpitations and a sense of constriction in the chest, possibly associated with high blood pressure. Aurum mur. is also used for edema (an irregular accumulation of fluid in the tissues or cavities of the body), with a feeling of congestion in the liver, kidneys, and genitals. Fibroids or cancer may also be helped.

It has many bone symptoms and pains and they are worse at night. Its catarrhal condition is very much like that found in old cases of syphilis, such as had long treatment with Mercury and Iodides.
