The ABC Homeopathy Forum

Has anybody heard of chrysophan?

I was recently reccomended by a friend of a friend from a homeopathic medicine called "acid chrysophan" - I can't seem to find it or any info on it anywhere. He tells me its use is for dry itchy scalp and psoriasis. He told me he will send me a liquid and ointment version from India to use. Has anyone heard of this?

There doesn't seem to be any info on this on the net...

Thanks in advance.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.

Chrysophanic acid is another name of Goa Powder and/or andira araroba.

It is the common name of CHRYSAROBINUM. Ask for it by this name.

The Chrysophanic acid is also found in Rhubarb and Senna. It is a skin irritant.

Mostly a skin remedy. With eye problems. Scruffy ears (skin)
