EQUISETUM HYEMALE

As prescribed by the physician.

• Equisetum hyemale is a valuable homoeopathic medicine prepared from the fresh plant Equisetum hyemale, when chopped and pounded to a pulp, derived from Equisetaceae family.

It also helps in managing rheumatic pains, disturbed sleep, and general weakness. Characterized by dull, heavy pains, mucous urinary sediment, and mental irritability, this medicine is particularly suited for cystitis, enuresis, gravel, and prostatic or bladder sensitivity.
