Indications

Key symptoms for prescribing the drug

• Nutritional disorders, weakness;
• Splanchnoptosis;
• Herpetic eruptions;
• Craving for salty food;
• Asthenia.

Main cases of clinical application

Otorhinolaryngology

• Recurrent rhinopharyngitis. Hypersecretion of the mucous membranes alternates with their dryness: acute rhinitis occurs suddenly; watery rhinorrhea and lacrimation are profuse and reach a maximum by 10 a.m., and decrease by noon. The onset of such recurrent rhinopharyngitis in children is often facilitated by weather changes and staying at the seaside;
• Allergic seasonal and perennial rhinosinusitis;
• Seromucous otitis;
• Chronic rhinosinusitis with an allergic component.

Pulmonology

• Constitutional treatment of asthma.

Dermatology

• Atopic dermatitis, in which lesions are localized in the folds of the elbows, popliteal fossae, and along the hairline;
• Juvenile polymorphic acne with comedones on the forehead;
• Frequently recurrent labial or genital herpes;
• Seborrheic dermatitis of the face and scalp with localization at the hairline;
• Warts localized on the palms, finger folds, and forehead wrinkles;
• Chronic or recurrent urticaria, starting either due to sudden and excessive exertion, often accompanied by profuse sweating, or due to sun exposure (photodermatitis).

Gynecology

• Premenstrual syndrome accompanied by weight gain;
• Recurrent vaginitis, especially vaginal mycosis;
• Dyspareunia due to vaginal dryness (not related to postmenopausal dryness), often alternating with profuse cervical mucus at the time of ovulation; this characteristic can be observed in women suffering from infertility of unknown cause;
• Hypomenorrhea, secondary amenorrhea in adolescent girls and young women;
• Menometrorrhagia.

Urology

• Recurrent urinary tract infections;
• Orthostatic proteinuria.

Psychiatry

• Reactive depressive states characterized by:
  • Withdrawal, sadness, tearfulness (most often in secret);

• Behavioral disorders in children that appeared after a long stay at the seaside.

Endocrinology

• Growth and development pathology in children;
• Dysthyreosis;
• Compensation of unstable insulin-dependent diabetes.

Gastroenterology

• Persistent constipation with fragmented stools in patients with disorders of salt and fluid intake (excess or absence of thirst);
• Dyspepsia;
• Vomiting with acetonemia in a child.

Other indications

• Convalescence periods after acute, anergy-causing illnesses, especially due to severe exhaustion (including gastroenteritis, sweating, hemorrhages), leading to dehydration, weight loss, and asthenia;
• Asthenia, psychasthenia due to physical or mental overwork (students during exams), accompanied by:
  • Pulsating headaches worsening in warmth;
  • Excitation of the cardiovascular system with the slightest effort;
  • Lumbago;
