ARISTOLOCHIA CLEMATIS



Temperature regulation Chilliness over the whole body. Night sweats. Chilliness during menses. Fever with tonsillitis. Cold extremities. Excessive flashes of heat with perspiration (menopause).

In routine office work, first consideration is to be given to Aristolochia before any other remedy (unless definitely indicated) in any case of suppressed or deficient menstruation (such as usually associated with Pulsatilla), as well as in the average case of cystitis. As a vulnerary, it seems to be superior to Calendula.
