Re: Re: Viscum album --viscum album mali
The Iscador products are well-documented anthroposophical remedies which are picked, fermented and prepared exactingly according to principles of, essentially, modern Rosicrucian alchemy as expounded by Rudolf Steiner and further elaborated experimentally and clinically during about the last 80 years. The preparations are identified as being potentised to low decimal potencies.
They are prescribed and my understanding is that they are injected except in cases of brain cancer, when they are taken orally to avoid swelling of the brain.
Except for IV adminstration protocols, they are typically injected subcutaneously and often are self-administered folllowing instruction on self-injection by the medical practitioner.
Depending on the jursidiction, if available a new or refill prescription may or may not be required by law, but it certainly seems to be the manufacturer?s model and intention that access shall be determined by physicians as part of a comprehensive approach to therapy for body, soul and spirit.
Published clinical studies and findings on this remarkable remedywhich acts directly and indirectly as a positive immune modulator, are extensive and show there is often substantial patient benefit. Annual cost of the medication, which typically may and should be continued for years, is currently in the range of $500 US at a maintenance dose level.
