Calcarea Carbonica is a preparation used in homeopathy. It consists of an inner lining in shells that have been prepared in a process known as trituration, which involves grinding something into a very fine powder for the purpose of purifying it. The remedy comes in small pills which are placed under the tongue and allowed to dissolve slowly.
In homeopathy, compounds introduced into the body for the purpose of medical treatment are known as ‘remedies’ and this is one of the most commonly used remedies. This remedy is available from homeopathic professionals and also directly through shops selling homeopathic treatments.

Homeopathy is a form of alternative medical practice based on the premise that ‘like cures like’. Consequently, when a patient comes to a homeopath’s office for treatment, he will conduct a detailed interview to learn about the patient’s general physical condition and specific symptoms and prescribe a remedy related to the emergence of such conditions. The remedy, however, is very diluted, so that only small amounts are introduced into the body.

Calcarea Carbonica is what is known as an antipsoric, meaning it works against a particular “miasma” or disease mechanism known as psora. The miasm theory was proposed by Samuel Hahnemann, the “father of homeopathy”, and has been much debated by members of the mainstream medical community. Hahnemann believed that many conditions were traced to psora, making this remedy, also known as calc or calc carb, a staple drug in any homeopathic practitioner’s cabinet.

This drug is usually used to treat conditions involving cold disorders, such as patients who experience worsening symptoms in cold weather or experience cold sensations. Candidates may also be tired and sluggish, with swollen lymph nodes and a lethargic attitude. Some treatments that Calcarea Carbonica is prescribed for may include teething, bronchitis, asthma, high blood pressure, ulcers, gallstones, and infections. This remedy can also be used in combination with other remedies to treat specific conditions.

While people can treat themselves with homeopathic remedies, it is best to attend a session with a homeopathic practitioner who can conduct a detailed interview with the patient and determine the best remedy to use. Patients may choose to meet with a complementary medicine practitioner, a practitioner who integrates traditional and alternative medicine into a medical practice for the purpose of approaching patients and conditions from a variety of perspectives.
