SNAKE REMEDIES (OPHIDIA) IN HOMEOPATHY
Dr.George Mathew BHMS,MD(Hom)

A considerable part of Homoeopathic materia medica consists of medicines taken from animal kingdom. As the name implies, the Ophidia group consists of medicines taken from snakes.
Ophidia comes under Class Reptilia, which comes under Phylum Chordata, under metazoa. The other Classes in Phylum Chordata includes Pisces, Amphibia, Aviens and Mammalia.
There are mainly 15 medicines in the Ophidia group. They are
1) Lachesis [ lachesis/ lachesis muta, proved by Hering]
2) Crotalus horridus [ Bush master-proved by Hering]
3) Crotalus cascavella [ rattle snake or pit viper, proved by Mure, comes under the N.O.-Crotalidae]
4) Naja tripudiens [ naja; cobra; Elapidae]
5) Elaps corallinus [ Snake; Micru rus corallinus]
6) Bothrops lanceolatus [ viper yellow.Lach lanceolates)
7) Vipera torva (german viper)
8) Vipera communis(common viper)
9) Vipera jedi
10) Cenchris contortrix [ head snake; Ancistrodon]
11) Bungarus fasciatus [ krait]
12) Toxicophis [ snake]
13) Hydrophis cyanocinctus
14) Clotho arictans [ adder]
15) Ophiotoxinum
Sources of drugs
The poison taken from the snakes. Chemically, the snake poisons are cyanhydrates of soda and other salts.
Lachesis will act quite well if the case is such that only Lachesis is required. In case the case is such that you require more remedies with it, then do expect violent response from Lachsis. Look at the case more deeply if it required more remedies and the most expected ones are Lycopodium and Crotalus Cascavella, wherein Lachesis and Lycopodium must be in same potency and Crotalus Cascavella two standard potencies below them. By two standard potencies below what I mean is that taking 6C, 30C, 200C, 1M, 10M, and CM as standard potencies if you give Lachesis in 200C then Crotalus Cascavella should be in 6C.
