Reviewed & updated: June 2026
This is general information about a homeopathic remedy, not a prescription or dosing advice. In homeopathy the correct remedy and potency are chosen for the whole individual symptom picture by a qualified homeopath — the same remedy is not right for everyone. Do not self-medicate, and consult a qualified homeopathic doctor (and your physician for serious or persistent conditions) before taking any remedy.
What Lycopodium Clavatum is used for
- Gas, bloating and indigestion, worse 4–8 p.m.
- Liver and gallbladder sluggishness
- Urinary complaints and certain kidney-stone pictures
- Hair loss and premature greying in the picture
- Anticipatory anxiety with low self-confidence
Characteristic symptom picture
Homeopaths look for these guiding features when considering Lycopodium Clavatum.
- Bloating and gas, worse in the late afternoon (4–8 p.m.)
- Often right-sided complaints
- Craves sweets and warm food/drinks
- Low confidence inwardly, with outward bluster
- Irritable on waking; quickly full when eating
Potency
Lycopodium is commonly used in 30C and 200C; potency is a clinical decision for your homeopath.
The characteristic picture & modalities
Lycopodium Clavatum, from club moss, is a major constitutional remedy associated in homeopathy with digestive and liver complaints - gas and bloating classically worse in the late afternoon, around four to eight in the evening - with quick fullness when eating and a craving for sweets and warm food and drink. Complaints are often right-sided, and the picture frequently shows outward bluster covering inward lack of confidence, with irritability on waking. Like any indication, this is a recognisable pattern, not a diagnosis, and it fits only some people with such complaints.
Before you take Lycopodium
Selecting the right remedy and potency means matching the whole individual - the digestive picture, the modalities and the temperament - which is exactly what a qualified homeopath is trained to assess, so the same name does not suit everyone with similar symptoms. Use this page as background reading rather than a prescription, and do not self-select a potency. Liver disease and persistent digestive or urinary problems still need proper medical monitoring; homeopathy is best used as a supportive, individualised approach alongside appropriate care.
