Indication / Benefits
Ceanothus Americanus, commonly known as New Jersey Tea, is a homoeopathic medicine derived from the plant Ceanothus americanus. Belonging to the Rhamnaceae family, it has been traditionally valued for its therapeutic properties in treating spleen and liver disorders, particularly those involving splenomegaly and hepatic congestion. In homoeopathy, Ceanothus Americanus is primarily used to address symptoms such as enlarged spleen, left-sided abdominal pain, and anemia. It is also employed for its effects on relieving discomfort associated with the spleen, improving general weakness, and conditions aggravated by spleen enlargement.
