Arsenicum for 1yr old with gastro flu ?

[melsy]

Just wondered if anyones tried this homeopathic remedy ?? and is 1 yr to young for it ?? Is it only in pill form??

Difficult to know if its the right remedy (you could ring the homeopathic helpline) but certainly fine to use on a 1 year old. DS2 had his first remedy at a few weeks old.

remedies can be ordered in powder form, or you can crush a pill between two spoons (not always easy!)

ive just called here baby homeopathy and they were fab, ive been told to use arsenicum (for fever & dioareah)and colocythis(for stomach pain)in tandem. he told me to get Cuprinol , as sugra free calpol has sorbitol in it which exascerbates the dioreah!!

after short consukt with another homeopath in my local area earleir , she gave me 3 doses of arsenicum to adminsiter. Ive gave her 1st pilule or in water (only took a little, but ive been told the energy is released after 20secs in water) about 3ish and again about 10 mins ago. Shes been clear of temp all afternoon and is now spiking 39, is this due to the arsenicum, it says that it brings back the symptoms tempoararily , is it ok to mix with nurofen ?? I feel like this is never ending, need help please.

am I talking to myself ???????

It is ok to give her the Nurofen Melsy - they work independently and do not react to each other.

Hope things are better tonite xx

Thankyou paps , I gave her some as it didnt seem right to go to 100+ temp again , even if going through healing crisis. Dont seem to get the same responses these days. Such a busy place i need to bummpety bump several times !!!!
