German Grindelia Robusta Q – Homeopathy for Asthma, Sleep Apnea, Bronchitis & Spleen Health

About German Grindelia Robusta Mother Tincture

Also known as Grindelia Squarrosa

Grindelia Robusta MT is a potent homeopathic remedy indicated for chronic bronchial asthma and spasmodic bronchial cough, especially when accompanied by profuse, tenacious expectoration that provides relief. Patients often experience cessation of breath while sleeping and wake suddenly gasping for air. This remedy is also valuable for spleen enlargement, where tenderness to pressure and occasional cutting pains radiating to the hips are observed. Some patients may also present with ascites and anemia, often associated with malaria or quinine cachexia. A related remedy for spleen symptoms is Tinospora cordifolia.

What do doctors recommend Grindelia Robusta for?

Dr. Vikas Sharma recommends Grindelia Robusta for obstructive sleep apnea in asthmatic patients, where breathing stops during sleep and the patient wakes suddenly, needing to sit up to breathe. It relieves chest oppression with tough, tenacious white expectoration and wheezing.

Dr. Gopi suggests Grindelia Robusta Q for wheezing and chest oppression, particularly when the mucus is foamy and difficult to detach. Asthma symptoms with profuse tenacious expectoration, difficulty breathing when lying down, and waking abruptly grasping for breath are relieved by this remedy.

Dr. Aadil Chimthanwala recommends Grindelia Robusta for Broncho Pneumonia (ब्रोंको निमोनिया), especially viral cases, in conjunction with Aantim tart. Dosage: 30–40 drops of Grindelia Q, increasing to higher potencies (1M or 10M) every 2–3 hours if the infection is severe.

Dr. Kirti Singh highlights Grindelia as effective for Asthma, sleep apnea, bronchitis, COPD, and spleen enlargement.

Squarrosa is noted for additional splenic symptoms, dull pains in the left hypochondrium, chronic malaria, and gastric discomfort associated with splenic congestion. Grindelia may induce extremity paralysis and first affects the heart (initial acceleration followed by slowing). It acts on the cardio-pulmonary distribution of the pneumo-gastric nerve, contributing to dry catarrh and bronchorrhśa with tough mucus difficult to detach. Other benefits include blood pressure regulation, relief from gastric ulcer-related nausea, sugar in urine, antidote to Rhus poisoning (local and internal), burns, blisters, vaginal catarrh, herpes zoster, and hyperchlorhydria linked with asthmatic and neurotic symptoms.
