Description

Schwabe Acer Negundo (Negundium Americana) – Homeopathic Dilution for Piles, Constipation & Proctological Comfort 

Introducing Schwabe Acer Negundo

Also known as Negundium Americana, Acer Negundo is a classic homeopathic remedy derived from the fresh bark or buds of the box elder tree. Prepared through Schwabe’s meticulous process of tincture creation—including serial dilutions (e.g., 6CH, 30CH, 200CH, 1M) and succussion—this remedy is offered in a 30 ml amber-glass bottle to ensure purity and potency.

Why the Box Elder Tree?

Native to North America, Acer negundo possesses astringent and anti-inflammatory properties—thanks to tannins and bioflavonoids—which support tissue healing. Indigenous communities also used it traditionally for digestive issues like vomiting and diarrhea.
