Snake Remedies - Boon for
Coagulopathies (Naja comp. w;)
Every coin has two sides, so when blood is too slow or too fast to
coagulate, that condition is labelled coagulopathy. Hence there is hyper and
hypo coagulopathy. Reduced coagulability of blood resulting in uncontrolled
haemorrhage can be due to:
1 Reduction in blood clotting protein level
2 Some genetic disorders
3 Trauma
4 Reduced platelets
It is important to identify the underlining cause but the first goal is
to stop haemorrhage. External supplement of blood plasma with RBC, prothrombin,
fibrinogen compounds and tranexamic acid is helpful to check the bleeding, but
for how long? And how many times? Thinning or thickening of the blood, is not a
symptom, so just to arresting bleeding once is not sufficient.
To handle the coagulation tendency, the immunity of the patient should
be increased by correcting the Diathesis. Bleeding tendencies belong to the
haemorrhagic diathesis and to maintain it the medicine must be anti-
haemorrhagic.
Here is the role for Snake remedies. Homeopathy has lots of
anti-hemorrhagic remedies, so then why snakes? Snake venom has many enzymes,
lipids, free amino acids and it is rich in proteins. Some proteins help in
thickening blood and in clot formation. Certain proteins which have anti-
coagulating compounds are helpful in thinning of blood. Hence they are
beneficial in hypercoagulopathy, and in dissolving a thrombus.
Every snake venom has different constituents but they all have a great
affinity for haemorrhagic disorders. Snake remedies are quick to act and so
useful in acute hemorrhage, as well for deep constitutionals to help in
settling the haemorrhagic tendency.
A few years back a 32 yrs female consulted me for menorrhagia. She said
‘Dr. I had painful, profuse and long lasting menses 2 months back. Last month
menses didn’t appear. this month I faced heavy painful menses again’’ Her
menses were profuse or scanty or totally absent; menstrual flow dark; tender
breast before menses; leucorrhoea excoriating genitals and staining garments.
She was a known case of varicose veins and high blood pressure. She had and
operation for PCOD. Thermally hot. Thirsty. Irritable lady especially before
menses or when constipated. Lachesis 200 and then Lachesis 1m fixed the
problem. In that case Lachesis proved itself beneficial by handling acute
bleeding and then it settled her constitutionally. This compelled me to think
about the usefulness of other snake remedies for controlling haemorrhage.
In a randomised clinical study done in 30 patients of both genders
suffering from haemorrhage with different etiology at Orange City Hospital and
Research Centre, Nagpur; along with conventional treatment, haemorrhage is
divided according to aetiology in three categories:
1. Abdominal hemorrhage
2. Cerebral hemorrhage
3. Haemorrhage from extremities
Lachesis muta, Crotalus
horridicus and Elaps corallinus were chosen for study.
(Why only three snakes?)
Indications of selected remedies in hamorrhage
1. Lachesis - bleeding, dark blood, does not coagulate. hemorrhage from
uterus, bowels, nose, stomach, lungs, or at the bottom of the ulcer; always
when blood can be discerned like black straws as a sediment; absolutely cannot
bear anything tight. Bluish purple skin. Bluish purple swelling. Dissecting
wounds. < pressure and constriction.

all mucus membranes. Intraocular haemorrhage; all discharges are bloody, even
sweat and saliva are bloody. Purpura haemorrhagica, comes on suddenly, from all
orifices, skin, nails and gums. Blood is dark, fluid and non-coaguable;
hemorrhage occurring in typical zymotic disease. In purpura, hand drop and

A abdominal haemorrhage study, 1-1-1 patient of ruptured Ectopic
Pregnancy and Oesophageal Varices and 2-2-2 patients of Peptic Ulcer were given
all 3 remedies respectively.
For cerebral haemorrhage study 1-1-1 patient of accidental head injury
and 2-2-2 patients of brain haemorrhage due to hypertension were given all
three remedies respectively.
To study for haemorrhage from extremities,1-1-1 patient of accidental
blunt injury and 2-2-2 patients of open wound from glass or knife were given
all three remedies respectively.
Every snake remedy viz Lachesis, Crotalus and Elapse -30 aqua dose given
tds to total 10 patients suffering from haemorrhage in different parts of body
[as explained above.
1-1-1 patient of each category where 3 pts were taken and 2-2-2 patients
respectively where 6 patients were taken for observation, so 10 patients for
each drug were observed.
OBSERVATION
Lachesis in abdominal haemorrhage [ectopic pregnancy]; Crotalus in
cerebral haemorrhage [in brain haemorrhage from hypertension] and Elapse in
haemorrhage from extremities [in open wound injury found promising]. Better
results than those patients who were only on conventional medicines.
Observation period was from a few hours to 3 days. This is my experience but
results may vary according to individual.

Snake remedies accelerate healing by controlling haemorrhage and
preventing hypovolumia; they help to speed recovery and improve the quality of
life. Snake remedies are quick to act, useful in acute hemorrhage. They are
also deep constitutionals, help settling the hemorrhagic tendency.
[Farrington]
Cinchona is frequently called for in ante- and post-partum haemorrhages;
in such cases you do not give it in a single dose, but repeatedly, at short
intervals, until the consequences of the haemorrhage have been removed. I would also recommend Cinchona when retained
placenta is attended by haemorrhage. It
has been my practice
to administer Cinchona until the tonicity of the uterus is restored, and
then remove the placenta.
Ip.: useful when there
is profuse bright red flow of blood, usually accompanied by nausea and
sometimes by very hard, labored breathing.
Bell.: useful when the
haemorrhage is of bright blood, coagulating rapidly, and feeling hot to the
parts over which it flows.
Tril.: controls
haemorrhage when the flow is either bright red or dark, and occurs in women who
flood after every labor.
Mill.: suited for a
profuse, bright red flow, unattended by pain. It is much like Aconite, but it
lacks the restlessness and anxiety, continuous flow after an injury.
Sabin.: when the flow is
bright red and clotted, and worse from
any motion, and is attained with
pain extending from the pubes through to the sacrum.
Carb-v.: a continuous
passive haemorrhage. The patient wants
to be fanned. The skin is cool and
bluish, and the pulse rapid and weak.
Sec.: thin women. The
flow of blood is passive; it is attended with tingling in the limbs. Although the surface of the body is cold,
desires to be uncovered.
Erig.: profuse haemorrhage
similar to that of Sabina, but associated with irritation of the bladder and
rectum.
Ham.: passive venous haemorrhages, especially when the part from which the flow
of blood proceeds feels sore and bruised.
Acal-i.: haemoptysis after
fits of dry coughing.
Cinnm.: profuse
haemorrhage from a strain or misstep.
Cycl.: profuse
haemorrhage, with dizziness and obscured
vision, as from a fog
[C. Hering]
Ip.: very copious continued flooding, during pregnancy, the blood flowing
with cutting pains around the navel. Great pressure and bearing-down. Chills
and coldness of the body. A feeling of heat rising into the head, great
weakness and inclination to lie down. This is also the most important remedy in
flooding after delivery.

Caul.: Womb Atony; Os Rigidity; Pains Migratory
& Thrush In Oral Cavity: (a) Want of Tonicity of womb. (b) Needle like
pains in cervix. (c) Habitual abortion from uterine debility.

Strain in loins of false step brings on a profuse flow of bright red blood.
Abortion of unwanted pregnancy. [Q. (M.T.)
6- 8 drops, 8 hourly; 30C]
Goss.: Intermittent pain in ovaries. Morning
sickness, retained placenta, rigid os and swollen labia. (30C)
Vib-o.: Prevents miscarriage. Mother Tincture - repeated history of
miscarriage. < night/motion/sudden jarring/stuffy room (feels faint); >
open air/pressure/lying down;
< sudden jarring; Depressed; desires solitude. Cramps begin in the
back, bleeding profuse and gushing. Frequent and very early miscarriage,
causing sterility. (Congestive state 30C, 1M)
Vib-p.: A uterine tonic. It is particularly
valuable in preventing miscarriage, whether habitual or otherwise [Ref. Dr.
J.H. Clarke]. Menstrual irregularities of sterile women with uterine
displacement. (30C)
[J.T. Kent]
Ip. uterus continuously oozing, but every little while the flow increases
to a gush, and with every little gush, she thinks she is going to faint, or
gasps, and the quantity of the
flow is not enough to account for such prostration, nausea, syncope,
pallor.
Sabin.: Uterine Haemorrhage with bright

‡ Calcium
Carbonicum/Cortex Quercus w 10 ml
ampules to treat haemorrhages and work needs to be done on differential
treatment (as alternative/complementary to Stibium met. prep. D 6).
Blutstillende properties of calcium were
discovered on the end of the 18th Century. anti-allergic properties were noted
by Wright 100 years later.
Apart from the "external"
aspect of serum treatment, this no doubt also has a deeper reason. The allergy
problem appears to have become genuinely topical around the turn of the
century, with the term "anaphylaxis" first used by Charles Richet and
Paul Portier in 1902. Clemens Pirquet introduced the term "allergy"
in 1906, having interpreted serum sickness as an antigen-antibody reaction a
year earlier. ‡

It is rarely the case that any hemorrhage proves immediately fatal,
except from injury or following pregnancy and confinement. Looking backward, I cannot
recall a single case. The patient should be kept very quiet and as much of the
mental excitement quieted as is possible.

from right to left in the abdomen; symptoms < 16 h. - 20 h. Desire for air;
to have the windows open; to be fanned. Often used in the worst cases of
pulmonic haemorrhage.
Merc: Haemorrhages in elderly females some time

the arteries and capillaries; bleeding from the uterus with pain in the back,
running down through the hips into the legs with a sensation of pressure, “As if the uterus itself would
escape from the vulva”.
Nux-v: Haemorrhages and an irritable condition of the rectum (frequent and
ineffectual desire for stool with the sensation as if portion of faeces were in
the rectum, this latter sensation remaining after stool); usually in
dark-haired subjects. Cause: rich food/coffee/intoxicating drinks;
constipation. < cold air/2 - 3 h. > warm place/lying on the side/in loose
garments/passing wind per anum.
Phos.: Tall, slim, dark-haired subjects; women who menstruate too often/too
much/too long. Small wounds bleed persistently and profusely; bleeding erectile
tumors.
Sensation of emptiness in the
abdomen; slim, dry stools, expelled with difficulty; flushes of heat. <
lying on l. side/on the back/warm food or drinks.
> lying on the r. side/cold food
and drinks/being rubbed/after sleep.
Plat-met: Haemorrhages, blood partially fluid and
partially hard, black clots; also coming out in quantities, and having a dark,
tarry appearance; “As if body was growing, larger in every direction”;

< close, warm room; desires open doors and windows; no thirst; scanty urine;
blood flows and stops, again flows and stops.
Sabin: Blood flows freely in fluid and
in clots. From the uterus, often a pain from the sacrum to the pubis or vice
versa; for violent after-pains of the above nature, with the above
characteristic bleeding (miscarriages about 3rd month); blood from the nose
pale; blood from the vagina pale, or red, dark, or mixed with light red;
soreness in the hypogastric region. < close, warm room. > in the open
air.
DD.: Puls: different bleeding
Puls: < warmth
Sabin: < warmth/pain is different

feeble and cachetic; tingling in the limbs and prostration; desires air;
aversion to being covered;
cool skin without desire for covering. > lying with limbs extended.
DD.: Calc: > with the limbs drawn up
Sec: > lying
with limbs extended
Sep: With abdominal plethora or congestion; pain in the r. groin; “As if
weight in anus”; painful sensation of emptiness in the pit of the stomach. >

(lungs/nose/uterus/rectum). < warm in bed/exposed to any heat/as of fire.
Trill-p.: general hemorrhage/excellent bleeding from
the nose; blood bright red or dark and clotted. The mother tincture applied to
the affected part will arrest the bleeding from nose, teeth etc.
[Mangliavori]
Spong.: In traditional medicine, it was used as a roasted substance. The
main use was as an anti-haemorrhagic for bad injury – it was used for external
bleeding and internal bleeding. The trituration of a roasted sponge was used a
lot for metrorrhagia, etc. The Arabs used this remedy a lot in their
traditional medicine. They used it a lot for people with a goitre. Every time
they saw somebody with such a swelling in their throat, they used the sponge
very efficacious to treat this problem to reduce the mass and to improve the
related symptoms.
Fibrous tumours and uterine hæmorrhages: Epihysterinum. Ergot. Thlas.
Frax. Hydr. and its alkaloids.
Lungen.:
Erig-c.: blood expelled in the shape of dark
coagula; it is likewise recommended for passive venous hemorrhage generally.
Ham.: passive venous hemorrhage, although it has
likewise been found an efficient remedy in active arterial hemorrhage.
Senec-a.: vicarious hemorrhage when occurring in the
place of the menses.
Tril-p.: tincture or infusion, is an excellent
remedy for pulmonary as well as uterine hemorrhage.
Verat-v.: uncomplicated, but severe pulmonary
hyperemia.
Scilla maritime: hemorrhage from neglected catarrh;
the blood bubbles up with a pricking sensation at the place whence the
hemorrhage proceeds.
[Dr. Petrie Hoyle]
Profuse menses
Calc.: Blond hair, fair thin skin, complexion is
shell pink, pale blue eyes. Oft flabby fat before or at puberty. Later on they
are disposed to lay on fat too easily. Take cold easily. As young girls, are
flesh and grow too fast, and whilst in the nursery they were accustomed to
burst out in profuse sweats (about head and neck, wetting the pillows
at night). Any child with a large head and protruding abdomen is most
likely develop the true Calc. constitution (now take these infants or small
children to a homoeopath).
At puberty this type develops great acidity of the digestive tract, sour
mouth, sour eructations, even to sour vomiting, sour smelling stools, and perhaps
a sour odour of the body. This constitutional type will generally run into
abnormally profuse menses: too early/too profuse/too long lasting, with
fingers, hands, toes and feet "going dead"
(waxy- white); feet were very damp and always icy cold. Sometimes these
cases have only 5 - 8 days clear intervals between periods. A leucorrhoea may
accompany this profuse flow.
Little or no pain at periods is the general rule. The least excitement
causes flow to start again. Often there is burning and itching of vaginal
orifice before and after menses,
this irritation is often met with at the beginning of the menstrual
epoch. The breasts become hot and tender and swell before menses. Much sweat
about genitals.
Ip.: A different picture, and yet both are broadly diagnosed by orthodoxy
as Menorrhagia. Here the menses is also too early and too profuse. The blood is
bright red, sometimes clotted,
but there is also colic and its grand keynote is great and persistent
nausea, without which symptom Ip. will not cure. Found to be peevish and
irritable, not her usual self,
breathing is heavy, rather forced and oppressed during the flow, with
stitches from navel to womb. Vomit will be glairy mucous and in quantities, all
of which does not afford relief from the nauseated feeling. If she has
accompanying diarrhoea, it is nearly always grassy-green, “As if fermented” and
there often is colic. Often the body surface will be covered with cold sweat.
Bell.: Menses often painful. Some value in cases too early and too profuse,
the flow being of gushing bright red blood, which, the patient will insist,
always feels very hot to her. May be the result of a successfully dried-up (not
cured) leucorrhoea. Read my Leucorrhoea articles. The Belladonna cases will
have some cramps in back and strangely enough nearly always cramps in the arms.
These patients say that their bearing-down sensations are worse when lying down
and are relieved when they are standing or sitting upright. Arteries throb
perceptibly. There will be a sensation of a rush of blood to the face and head;
throbbing headaches generally; pressing down sensation as if contents
of abdomen would issue from vulva (vagina) with abdomen very tender and
distended, and all pains are made much worse by the least jar, even of the bed.
Some cases have fever and all are of the congestive type.
Cham.: Emotions must be marked. Nervous/excitable/over sensitive to pain.
Driven to despair by her pains; snappish, cannot return a civil answer, all of
which we will put down to nerves ajar and not to bad disposition. Menses:
early/very profuse, with pain BADly endured. The emotion is out of proportion
to the actual pain. Flow generally black and very clotted.
The colic is declared to have the sensation as of pressure from below
upwards; which peculiarity helps to select it quickly. Complain of many little
shivers # some heat. Child has one
cheek red and the other very pale. The emotional side must predominate,
the patient declaring or think, "I cannot bear this any longer", an
expression so often heard.
Ham.: Bruised soreness with passive dark profuse
flow. The excessive flow dark and is more of a venous (vein) bleeding than
arterial. Passive bleedings appearing between normal times of periods; always
with complaints of extreme soreness and bruised sensation in lower abdomen
(Arn.), with bearing down pain in the back. Ovaries, womb and vagina feel
tender and sore.
Plat.: It is the remarkable mental symptoms which
guide us to its use. Menses too early, too profuse, dark, clotted, and + some
bearing down or, as some describe it, of painful weight with great sensations of
chilliness. The pains increase and decrease gradually. Governing the selection
of this remedy, there must be extreme hypersensitiveness of the genital area,
of nearly all possible types, degrees and conditions, and there are thoughts
which are quite foreign to the patient if she is in a normal state of health.
These irregular thoughts obtrude themselves against the patients desire. In
calm moments she hates them. Menstrual symptoms are mixed up with many sex
reflexes. Rare cases are worth saying, and only homoeopathy can save them.
Without our special medical aid some of these unfortunate suffers are doomed to
"mental homes", or certainly to unending "restraint". Among
the mental distressing symptoms cured by Platina, we find characteristic
delusions, sex irritations, hysteria (remember that the word hysteria is taken
from the Greek word for womb), the exalted pride, the haughtiness, the
belittling of everyone around her, all of which are foreign to the woman when
she is well. Sometimes home objects seem unfamiliar to her. The sufferer
becomes melancholic, she may have a desire to kill someone, but not herself.
There is no suicide motive in the make-up.
To sum up, Platina cures profuse bleedings with self exaltation and
great genital irritation. This sentence rounds out the drug picture.
The sufferers amenable to Platina need all possible help to save them
from themselves. A given case need not have all the symptoms mentioned before
employing it. I have not found Platina mentioned in any orthodox books on medicine
which I have at hand.
Chin.: The long-continued haemorrhagic floodings
are dark, sometimes with clots. Flos profuse, so much so that the patient
becomes bloodless with faintings, loss of sight,
and ringing in the ears, with general coldness of the body. Here is
another very strange guiding symptoms. "The patient wants to be
fanned." Thousands of people in extremis have murmured the prayer:
"Fan me, Fan me." Trust a "peculiar" homoeopathic symptom.
Although the patient is icy cold he wants to be fanned. His or her face is
ghastly pale, pinched, shrunken, eyes are sunken in head, and there are dark
blue circles surrounding the eyes. It is a grave picture.
[Matthew Wood]
In order to control tissue that is prolapsed or
collapsed and leaking fluids we need a reliable astringent. Sumach is the best
medicine for stopping the outflow of fluids via the kidneys, skin, colon,
lungs, and other channels of elimination.
