Aviaire
Mycobacterium avium nosode (avian tuberculosis) · Nosode
Aviaire suits patients with tubercular diathesis presenting chiefly with pulmonary apex involvement. It is especially indicated in the bronchitis of influenza that closely simulates early tuberculosis. The remedy has cured several hopeless-looking bronchitic cases following measles.
Key symptoms
- Bronchitis of influenza simulating tuberculosis
- Affection of the apices of the lungs
- Bronchitis following measles
- Cough with phthisical appearance in hopeless-looking cases
A preparation of chicken-tuberculosis introduced by Dr. Cartier and other homœopaths of Paris.
Clinical
Bronchitis. Influenza. Measles. Phthisis.
Characteristics
Dr. Cartier gave an account of this nosode in his paper read at the International Homœopathic Congress, 1896 (Transactions, Part "Essays and Communications," p. 187). Aviaire acts most prominently on the apices of the lungs, and it corresponds most closely to the bronchitis of influenza, which simulates tuberculosis, having cured several hopeless-looking cases. It has also done excellently in some cases of bronchitis following measles. The bacillus of avian tuberculosis has been identified with that of human tuberculosis, but the clinical properties of the two nosodes are not identical.
