I just this product for sore muscles

[jyearta]

Maybe some of you already know of this product, but I just found out about it, and works really good for sore muscle.

ARNICARE GEL - I found it at CVS, had to ask the pharm. it cost a little over $10.00. - no presc. needed.

I have read some many post where some of you are sore after your seizures so I just wanted to share this info. in hopes it will help you.

I have a pulled muscle in my side I tried several creams and heating pad nothing helped. This has been great.

be careful.

I have used tictures (i think thats the word Im looking for) of Arnica for several years now. Its something I learned from being pagan and researching herbs etc. This is also known as wolfsbane (although that can be confusing because that name is also used for another type of herb) and sometimes called leopardsbane.

BE CAREFUL. This is toxic so do not use too much, as it absorb into the skin

Definitely be careful. This is a product of Boiron who are in a lot of legal trouble for selling sugar pills & instead of anything medicinal.

A class-action complaint has been filed against the manufacturers of Oscillococcinum, a homeopathic product widely claimed to be a flu remedy. The complaint (shown below) charges that the product (a) is nothing more than a sugar pill, (b) has no impact on the flu or any symptoms that accompany it, and (c) contains no molecules of its allegedly active ingredient. The suit, filed in California against Boiron, Inc., Boiron USA, Inc., and Laboratories Boiron, asks the court to halt the challenged claims and award damages for violating consumer protections laws.

Another class action suit was filed against them in Canada.

In March 2012 REO launched a proposed class action against Boiron Canada relating to the marketing of Oscillicoccinum and Oscillicoccinum Children. According to Boiron, Oscillicoccinum is effective in relieving flu symptoms. The Statement of Claim alleges that, among other things, Boiron breached several consumer protection statues in its marketing of Oscillicoccinum as the product contains virtually none of its purported active ingredient namely Anas Barbarie Hepatis et Cordis extractum (namely the extract of the liver and heart of the Barbary Duck). As a result of those alleged breaches the proposed class members have vastly overpaid for what is in essence a sugar pill. The allegations in the Statement of Claim have yet to be proven in Court.

BOY, am I thankful for you guys.

I hope the other people in the forum who reads this post of mine, will read what you both have said.

It was a chiropractor who told me of this product. The instuctions say to use 3 times a day. I've only used once a day.

Was there any documentation that said Oscillococcinum was harmful for epilepsy? Conflicting with any medications etc? I have purchased some and if it is just a placebo it shouldn't interfere with any meds correct? But I have read good reviews on this product also

I know I should have read the instruction but I was in so much pain. I haven't used since reading the 2 previous post about it could become toxic.
