Aqua marina - Sea water.
-GEORGE VITHOULKAS
The essential features
This remedy may be used as an alternative to Natrum muriaticum or Medorrhinum when you have a case displaying a strong aggravation or amelioration near the sea or from bathing in sea water, and when neither of those two remedies acts, though apparently indicated.
Skinner has reported a remarkable cure of granular ophthalmia with an aggravation near the sea and claims to have used it for over 20 years with success in constipation aggravated or induced by a temporary residence at the sea coast, also for any disturbance of the system resulting from a saline atmosphere. Clarke reports that it has been used in seasickness. It has been proved by C. Wesselh_ft.
It is interesting to me that this remedy produces a granular ophthalmia like that of Medorrhinum, and also "constant hawking and raising of phlegm, tough and white like cotton." Both of these symptoms are strong Medorrhinum symptoms. Unlike Medorrhinum, however, which is typically ameliorated when in or by the sea, Aqua marina will most of the time be aggravated in the sea.
Aqua marina also produces: a sensation of a hair or fishbone in the throat with tickling, extending to the ear and temples, and urging to swallow; nausea in the stomach and abdomen.
I believe that this remedy will be tremendously helpful when proved properly.
Relationship
Compare Natrum muriaticum and Medorrhinum.
Dosage
The higher potencies should be used.
[Clarke reports that in seasickness Aqua marina has been drunk in its crude form as a treatment. (I would not suggest this).]
