MediAc

MediAc is a 100% homeopathic formula that contains the following ingredients in therapeutic dosage: Hepar sulph calc (30C), Carbo veg (30C), Causticum (30C), Silica (6X), and Lactose.   

• Causticum hahnemanni (30C) is an astringent and should not be ingested in any form other than a properly formulated medicine. The remedy was discovered, developed, and proven by Dr. Hahnemann in the early 1800’s.  
• Hepar sulphuris calcareum (30C) is a chemical combination of two remedies: Calcarea carbonica and Sulphur. Where suppuration seems inevitable, Hepar sulphuris may help to open an abscess. Skin affections of the Hepar sulphuris patient are extremely sensitive to the touch, often surrounded by little pimples or pustules spread by coalescing.   
• Carbo vegetabilis (30C) is said to help absorb toxins in the body. Carbo vegetabilis patients are usually identified by the characteristic engorgement of capillary circulation, meaning they become easily flushed through stimulation from food or drink.   
• Silicea (D6) is the fundamental ingredient of sandstone and is also found in human and animal tissue, where it is used to strengthen bones and teeth. Silicea is very effective in helping the body to expel all foreign or toxic matter such as pus and is frequently recommended in therapeutic dosage to quickly address boils.   
• Lactose (inactive ingredient)
