Recommended Dosage:
10 to 40 drops 3 times per day.
Medicinal Use*: The roots
contain derivatives of thymol, which
are used as
fungicides and preservatives and
may have some anti-inflammatory effect. Arnica
is currently used in liniment and ointment
preparations used for strains, sprains,
and bruises.
Commercial arnica preparations are frequently
used by professional athletes. Arnica should
not be taken internally due to its toxicity,
with the possible exception of homeopathic
preparations that are diluted at
24X or more, since only water remains. Arnica
preparations used topically have been
demonstrated to act as an anti-inflammatory and
assist normal healing processes by facilitating
transport of blood and fluid accumulations
through a dilating action of subcutaneous blood
capillaries. Arnica also aids in wound-healing
after surgery to treat varicose
veins and helps reduce pain and hematoma following
surgery.
