Dear Colleagues

PLEASE does any one know anything about the remedy Guttae Cineraria Succus?

If so please forward the information to me.

Soroush - Guttae means drop and succus means the "juice of" something as in
"succulent" so I think what you are asking for is a drop of the juice of the
Cineraria. Cineraria is the following plant. I hope this helps. From Murphy:

Dusty Miller
PHARMACY - Cine. Cineria maritima. Senecio Cineraria. Dusty Miller. N.
O. Composite. Tincture or succus of the fresh plant, growing wild, gathered
just before the flower-buds open. Historical dose: Tincture and all
potencies.

FOLKLORE - This is an unproved drug, but it has been used with a good
deal of success in cases of cataract as an external application. The method
adopted is to instill one drop, four or five times a day into the eye
affected and to keep this up for several months. Most effective in traumatic
cases. Planets: Sun, Saturn.
MEDICAL - Traumatic cataract and corneal opacities, as well as senile
cataract, have been removed in this way. I have seen no reports of cures by
internal use of the remedy alone, but in some cases it was given internally
as well as used externally. Generally the patients have received specific
homeopathic treatment internally at the same time.
CLINICAL - Cataract. Corneal opacity. Eye, injury.
COMPARE - (1) In cataract Calc-f. Phos., Platanus, Cann-i., Caust.,
Naph., Led., Nat-m., Sil.
SOURCES - Boericke. Clarke. Phatak.

Dear Soroush,
Sounds like it could be Cineraria maritima, which is a remedy which has been used (formulated as eyedrops) locally in cataracts, and has some reputation in their dissolution. I suggest check the books for cineraria, and see if this might be correct.

Best regards,
Andy
