What is eucalyptus?
Eucalyptus acts on the mucous membranes and can be used as a remedy for all age groups, including self-medication. Although rarely used, the remedy has a positive effect on various complaints of the respiratory, urogenital and digestive tracts. It has a circulation-enhancing and antiseptic effect. Eucalyptus has a positive effect on the flora of the urinary tract and bladder as well as the mucous membranes of the stomach and intestines.
The homeopathic remedy is mainly used to relieve purely physical ailments; the mental aspect tends to take a back seat when the remedy is used. Eucalyptus fits as a first-aid remedy in a homeopathic home, travel or children’s pharmacy.
