Studies on Justicia adhatoda from Dr. William Bœricke’s Materia Medica, Dr. S. C. Ghose’s Drugs of Hindoostan and the CCRH website – revealed the medicine Justicia adhatoda.
Dr. Bœricke and Dr. Ghose advised the administration of q, 3x, 6x; and q, respectively; whereas CCRH recommended 6x potency. On the unavailability of 3x and 6x, I opted to administer 30c. Justicia 30 was administered – 4 globules 4 times daily as a ‘remedy’ for 7 days and 95% cases were cured of their symptoms.
Justicia 30 was given as a ‘preventive’ to others and the family members of the patients; and it yielded good result. Dr. George Royal and Dr. Selden Haines Talcott advised that administration of the remedy as a ‘preventive’ should be continued till the appearance of the symptoms of the medicine.
I, myself took Justicia adhatoda 30 as a preventive from August 7, 2009 and stopped the day before on August 15, 2009 – on the appearance of sneezing and running nose.
In the CCRH website, the symptoms of Justicia adhatoda (by Homœopathic Pathogenetic Trial) are
Justicia adhatoda Linn. (Vasaka)
Common Name : Vasaka
Sanskrit : Baidyamata, Vasaka
