General

Natrum Selenicum.

Selenate of Sodium. NaSeO4. Trituration.

Clinical

Laryngeal phthisis. Laryngitis, chronic.

Characteristics

This is an unproved remedy, but it has a decided affinity for the larynx. According to Hansen its use in homoeopathy was first suggested by Meyhoffer, who gave the indication in laryngeal phthisis as: "Expectoration of small lumps of bloody mucus with slight hoarseness." It is best suited to the early stage of the disease.
