Boils & Abscesses 6c

For localised infections of a festering nature e.g:

• Boils & abscesses,
• Whitlows,
• Deep-seated acne pustules (note: acne might get worse before it gets better).

One dose is 3-5 pillules sucked under the tongue in a clean mouth, this applies to adults, children and animals alike.
In acute conditions, dose every 30-60 minutes for 3 doses thereafter every 2-4 hours as required for 3-5 days.
For colic in babies, dose 15 minutes before feeds and repeat after feeds if required.

Avoid peppermint, coffee, toothpaste and other ‘aromatic’ food or drink 20min prior dosing.

DOSING INFANTS
Until an infant can suck the pillules safely without risk of choking (around 8-9 months old),

• Crush 4-5 pillules between 2 plastic medicine measures then add a small amount of water and spoon directly into the child’s mouth.
• Do not use metal spoons as the remedies are very subtle and absorption may be affected.
• As soon as the child can suck the pillules, dose normally.
• Alternatively if you’re dosing frequently, another method may be useful: dissolve 10 pillules in half a glass of boiled and cooled water and spoon one medicine measure into the infant’s mouth for each dose.
• Discard the water after 24 hours.

FOR 2 REMEDIES

• When dosing with more than one remedy at a time, alternate dosing between the remedies.
• Do not take different remedies simultaneously as this will render them ineffective.
• Alternate dosing either every half-hour or hourly initially until there’s a positive response to the symptom picture.
• Thereafter, dose every two to four hours until well.
• The remedy can continue to be taken once a day or once or twice per week if there is an underlying chronic picture.

DIABETICS

• The pillules are made of Sucrose, which is a sugar and thus not ideal for diabetics as they are sweet.
• However, none of the pegasus remedies are intended for use long term as each episode should require dosing for a few days only.
• Should diabetics choose to use the remedies, they should use only 3 pillules per dose to limit the sugar aspect or as an alternative, dissolve 10 pillules in half a glass of water and use one medicine measure for each dose.
• Discard the water after 12 hours. This way, the sugar element is diluted.

BLOOD THINNING AGENTS

• For those taking blood-thinning medication e.g. warfarin, clopidogrel (Plavix), heparin etc. there are some homeopathic remedies that may affect the blood-clotting process in a small minority of sensitive individuals.
• The risk is low and the occurrence rare.
• The probability is further reduced by the fact that the pegasus remedies are only indicated for short-term use (3-5 days).
• Should one choose to take one of these remedies for an extended period of time, we would advise close monitoring of the blood-thinning medication levels in the blood.
• The risk would increase should a sensitive individual take 2-3 of the remedies concerned at the same time.
• Each remedy concerned has a warning label on the bottle and is highlighted

IF ABDOMINAL PAIN IS SEVERE AND THE ABDOMEN IS DISTENDED, HARD OR VERY TENDER TO THE TOUCH OR THERE IS BLOOD IN THE STOOL, SEEK PROFESSIONAL MEDICAL HELP IMMEDIATELY.
