BoerickeClarkePhatak

Thiosinaminum is a remedy for fibrotic and cicatricial pathology wherever it occurs in the body—strictures of the rectum, adhesions, fibroids, scar tissue, thickened tympanic membrane, and enlarged glands. It acts as a chemical resolvent rather than producing a broad constitutional picture. It is also employed in arteriosclerotic conditions and tinnitus caused by fibrous thickening around the ossicles.

Key symptoms

  • Dissolves scar tissue, adhesions, and strictures throughout the body
  • Reduces enlarged lymphatic glands and tumors
  • Tinnitus aurium caused by fibrous bands binding the ossicles
  • Catarrhal deafness with cicatricial thickening of tympanic membrane
  • Stricture of the rectum from fibrous band resolved by treatment
  • Tumors of uterine appendages; lupus with local reaction
  • Sensation of heat and burning in affected parts
  • Arteriosclerotic vertigo and tinnitus

Characteristics

Thios. belongs to the same chemical group as Urea. The colourless bitter crystals are soluble in water, alcohol, and ether. Thios. has been used externally and internally in cases of lupus, chronic glandular tumours, and for dissolving scar tissue; and internally for resolving tumours of the uterine appendages. The usual internal dose in old-school practice is 4 to 8 grains once a day given hypodermically in a 15 per cent. solution. C. H. Pennoyer (quoted Pac. C. J. of H. viii. 199) relates this case: Mrs. C., 69, had been several years ill with gastric distress, sciatica, pains in hips down to knees; < by motion. Indigestion, flatulence of stomach and bowels, < after eating. Pain in back. Inability to walk; much perspiration; depression of spirits; and …
