BJain Berberis Vulgaris Q Mother Tincture

BJain Berberis Vulgaris Q Mother Tincture

BJain Berberis Vulgaris Q is the mother tincture of barberry – the concentrated form from which all higher potencies are prepared, made by macerating the raw drug in alcohol and distilled water, then pressing, filtering and ageing. Berberis is one of homoeopathy’s best-known kidney remedies, characteristically indicated where pain radiates outward and wanders from the kidney region rather than staying in one place. It is classically used in renal and biliary calculi, cystitis and gallstone complaints. Prepared with Extra Neutral alcohol by B. Jain Pharmaceuticals.
