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.

The Lycopus picture and modalities
Lycopus Virginicus pictures an over-driven heart and thyroid. Its keynotes are a rapid, forcible, tumultuous heartbeat and palpitations felt strongly in the chest, together with the overactive-thyroid picture of prominent eyes, tremor, restlessness, and breathlessness, worse from exertion and excitement. A homeopath reads this fast-heart, overactive-thyroid pattern only within a framework of proper medical diagnosis and treatment.
Before you consider Lycopus
This is materia-medica information, not advice to self-treat. A rapid or forcible heartbeat and thyroid symptoms need medical diagnosis and treatment, and palpitations with chest pain, breathlessness, or fainting are emergencies. In homeopathy this remedy is chosen constitutionally by a qualified practitioner within medical care. Homeopathy should complement, not replace, conventional treatment.
