Cholesterinum is a substance crystallizing in leaflets with a mother-of-pearl lustre and a fatty feel. It is soluble in alcohol and ether. It occurs in the blood and brain, yolk of eggs, seeds and buds of plants, but most abundantly in the bile and gallstones.

To the late Dr. Wilhelm Ameke of Berlin, we are indebted for the first mention of this remedy. From him Dr. Burnett obtained the suggestion and used the lower potencies with more or less success for several years, a description of which he gives us in his Diseases of the Liver. Swan appears to have taken his hint from Burnett's work and potentized the remedy, using a gall-stone for his preparations.
Ameke recommended Cholesterinum as a remedy in cancer of the liver. This substance is abundantly present in bile and biliary stones. Cholesterinum is the physiological opponent of Lecithin. Both seem to play some unknown part in the growth of tumors.

CLINICAL CONDITIONS
Cholesterinum introduced by Swan, he affirms after much experience that it is almost a specific for gall-stone colic, it relieves the distress at once. And this after failure with Nux-v., China, Carduus mar.,
Podophyllum and other apparently well-selected remedies.

Cholesterinum is a useful remedy for cancer of the liver, for obstinate gall stones, for vitreous opacities and obstinate jaundice. Obstinate hepatic engorgements. Opacities of the vitreous. Benign tumors, fibroids. Insomnia.

It has been used with success in the removal of opacities of the vitreous.

MODALITIES
Worse from touch or jar. Worse lying on side. Worse bending or sudden motion.
