This remedy is prepared from bile. It is very useful in the treatment of liver and gall bladder diseases. It is the best treatment for gall bladder pain (billiary colic). In my experience, I have found it very useful in the treatment of the diseases of the liver, gall bladder, spleen and pancreas. It is also very useful in the treatment of the cancer of the liver. It prevents deposition of fat in the body. It is also useful in lowering blood cholesterol level. In America, patients have tried many modern medicines to lower cholesterol which did not work, but with the use of Cholesterinum, they noticed significant effect.
Cholesterinum is also useful in preventing inflammation of the gall bladder and pancreas and prevention of stone formation. If given at the initial stage, the patient will be saved from many possible complications. If the stones have already formed, use of Cholesterinum will soften and dissolve them. Within a short time, the stones disappear.
Cholesterinum is also very useful in treatment of jaundice and an enlarged spleen. Cholesterinum patients usually exhibit restlessness and general unease. There is loss of sleep, though not to the extent as in Arsenic and there is no irritability of Chamomilla. It is also useful for the treatment of suffocation.
Morphia annuls the effect of Cholesterinum.

CHOLESTERINUM
The proximate principle--Furnished by the epithelium lining of gall bladder and the larger ducts
For cancer of the liver. Obstinate hepatic engorgements. Burning pain in side; on walking holds his hand on side, hurts him so. Opacities of the vitreous. Jaundice; gallstones. Cholesterine is the physiological opponent of Lecithin. Both seem to play some unknown part in the growth of tumors. Gallstones and insomnia.
Relationship.--Compare: Taurocholate of soda in Homeopathy.--Dr. I. P. Tessier, in an interesting study of the action of bile and its salts, in hepatic affections, analyzes a number of experiments by leading authorities, with the object of determining this action, and concludes that in the Taurocholate of Soda, homeopathy has a useful remedy against certain forms of hypoglobular anæmia. The claim that its pathogenesis and toxicology clearly indicate its value, and that it should also serve us as a remedy in cases of hypertrophy of the spleen and ganglia. He calls our attention to the fact, that it produces dyspnœa, the Cheyne-Stokes rhythm, acute pulmonary œdema, and intense exaggeration of the cardiac pulsations, offering a good field for clinical studies and experimentation of great interest, which may give fruitful and important results.
Dose.--Third trituration.
