Blood pressure regulator (for both high and low blood pressure). Supports digitalis therapy, flu-like symptoms, sensitivity to changes in the weather, and fatigue.

Properties and efficacy:
Cardiovascular disorders occur both in the context of serious illnesses and as a result of ageing, and are sometimes accompanied by symptoms of insufficiency ranging from mild to severe, each requiring specific treatment. As the heart and circulatory system form a self-contained whole, the remedies used to treat them must have a dual effect. The remedies combined in the Cardiovascular Drops have specific mechanisms of action which, in homeopathy, are used both as single remedies and, since time immemorial, in mixtures with coordinated effects.

Crataegus is known for its mild cardiotonic effect; in D1 potency in particular, it exerts a very gentle effect even on an easily excitable heart (and is also used as a beneficial adjunctive therapy alongside digitalis medication to reduce excitability). In this sense, Crataegus has a regulating effect in both the hyper- and hypotensive ranges.

Aurum colloidale is known for its effect on the vascular system in cases of blood congestion and stasis, as well as for its effect on the central nervous system and the mood.

Strophantus gratus, in the 4th potency, acts on hyperexcitability, nervous symptoms and paroxysmal palpitations.

Cactus grandiflorus, with its well-known and proven effect on the coronary arteries, also has a heart-toning effect.

Camphora affects the vasomotor centre and the general tone of the circulatory system, as well as the peripheral circulation and its associated stasis.

Valeriana is effective where insomnia, anxiety and restlessness place a strain on the patient’s general condition and thus also influence somatic processes. Thanks to this combination of remedies, the cardiovascular drops have been highly valued by patients for many years and are based on a long tradition of experience; many patients are able to discontinue their digitalis medication, whilst many patients who require digitalis experience positive additional support for their overall cardiovascular condition. In some cases, a reduction in dosage is tolerated, or improved tolerance to digitalis is achieved. After all, it is always the whole person – from the psyche right down to the peripheral circulation – who is affected by illness, who suffers, and who needs profound and multifaceted support that addresses as many of their impaired areas as possible.

Side effects:
None known to date.

Dosage:
20 drops three times a day; more frequently if symptoms occur. Shake well before use!

General note:
Homeopathic drops should be taken undiluted where possible, and directly onto the tongue if possible, as they are absorbed through the mucous membranes of the mouth. If the taste is too strong, the measured drops can be diluted in a glass with a few drops of water. Unless otherwise stated, homeopathic drops should always be taken on an empty stomach, i.e. before meals.
Herbal and other natural products in higher concentrations may become cloudy or develop a slight sediment due to temperature fluctuations and other storage conditions; this does not affect their efficacy.

Special warnings for safe use:
This medicinal product contains 52.8% by volume of alcohol and must not be given to people with alcoholism. For children, the measured number of drops should be diluted with a little water (2–3 tablespoons). Pregnancy and breastfeeding: The doctor will decide on administration during pregnancy and breastfeeding. Medical advice is required at the first signs of side effects.
