Prevention: Muco coccinum
Dr. Cheryl Kasdorf’s choice for at-home flu prevention
Muco coccinum is a safe and natural way to protect and treat you and your family during the flu season.
With over a million doses sold per year, Belgium has been using this successful remedy for several years. Now it is available in North America.
This oral tablet is an effective flu treatment as well can be used preventatively as a safe alternative to influenza vaccinations.
Dr. Kasdorf prefers this to the over-the-counter preparation called Oscillococcinum because of its unique formulation.
Muco coccinum stimulates the body’s defenses to combat symptoms associated with both colds and flu.
What’s In It?
Muco coccinum is a homeopathic medicine prepared with various strains of bacteria and viruses. It includes two strains of the worst flu epidemics of the 20th century.
As a homeopathic preparation, this medicine does not have any infectious agents in it, but has the ability to gently activate the body’s natural defense mechanisms to protect you from the flu and treat symptoms if you have come down with them.
The formula is:
- Klebsiella pneumoniae K2 200K
- Branhamella catarrhalis 200K
- Micrococcus tetragenes 200K
- Influenzinum 200K
Where do I get it?
Stock up before symptoms hit in one of two ways.
If you are a patient of Dr. Kasdorf, you can pick it up in her office. (unless there is a run on it!)
Anyone can get it through Dr. Cheryl’s fulfillment service at Fullscript. It is easy to create and account, and then put in your order. Look for Muco coccinum under the “Seasonal Wellness” category in Dr. Cheryl Kasdorf’s dispensary or try this link.
How do I use it?
Flu Prevention
- Take one tablet every 2 weeks, starting early autumn and proceeding through the winter.
- The best time is when the weather changes, repeating at subsequent weather changes.
At the Earliest Sign of the Flu
- At the first sign of symptoms, take one tablet allowing it to dissolve under the tongue.
- If symptoms persist, take one tablet two or three times during the day.
- This can stop you from coming down with full-blown flu symptoms.
Acute Stage of the Flu
- Take one tablet every two to three hours until symptoms subside.
- This assists in drastically reducing the severity of flu symptoms.
- Then continue one tablet in the morning and evening for 2 to 3 days more.
- If symptoms continue to persist after three days, discontinue use and seek advice from a health care practitioner.
Directions for handling Muco coccinum
- Press the tablet out of the blister packet and put it on the tongue. Let it melt slowly without chewing.
- For children, divide the tablet in half and follow the directions.
- For little children: crush the tablet, dissolve it in a bit of pure water, and administer it with a spoon in divided doses.
- The fabrication method allows for touching the tablet with the fingers without influencing the quality of the homeopathic medicine.
Beyond Muco coccinum
Muco coccinum is one homeopathic medication that can be used at the first signs of flu. It is useful because it is all-purpose for your symptoms, even if they are more like a cold.
However, you might also like to know about single homeopathic remedies to be used For the First Signs.
