Septicaeminum
Nosode
Septicaeminum is a nosode indicated in septic and typhoid-like states, dysentery, and camp diarrhea. It is related to Pyrogenium, Malarinum, and Baptisia, which share similar indications for infectious and septic conditions.
Key symptoms
- Camp diarrhea and dysentery responding dramatically to treatment
- Sinking or typhoid-like states
- Dysentery and diarrhea in epidemic or camp conditions
Nosode of Septicæmia (Swan). Attenuations made from contents of a septic abscess.
Clinical
Camp diarrhœa. Dysentery. Typhoid fever.
Characteristics
Skinner (H. W., xxxv. 246) gave a supply of Septic. 10m (F. C.) to a volunteer going to South Africa, with instructions to take a globule every four hours if attacked with anything like sinking or typhoid fever. The young man wrote home that "Septicæmin is like magic in diarrhœa and dysentery in camp life," and asked for more, as his supply was largely drawn on by his friends.
