Calcarea renalis
Mineral
Calcarea Renalis is a nosode prepared from renal calculi, operating on the principle of similars in conditions of calculus formation throughout the body. Dr. Bredenoll's experience demonstrated that the remedy stopped new calculus formation, caused dissolution of dental tartar, and resolved a stony tendon nodosity, suggesting broad action on calcareous deposits.
Key symptoms
- Renal colic with passage of uric acid calculi
- Gravel and stone in the bladder
- Tartar forming and dropping off the teeth
- Stony hard nodosities on extensor tendons of fingers
- Gout with calcareous deposits

Characteristics
H. Recorder (Aug., 1895) reprints a paper by Dr. Bredenoll, of Erwitte, in which he gives his experience with this remedy in his own case. Following a repercussed eruption he had among a host of other troubles renal colic of great intensity, with passage of uric acid calculi. One of these was triturated in the proportion of 5 parts to 95 of sugar of milk, and of this he took 1/2 grain doses for a considerable time, with the result that the formation of calculi ceased, the tartar which had formed on the teeth dropped off, and a nodosity of stony hardness disappeared from the extensor tendon of the right middle finger.
