Pareira Brava Homeopathy Tincture — Urinary Retention & Prostate Relief

About Pareira Brava Homeopathy Mother Tincture (Q)

Pareira Brava, also known as Chondodendron Tomentosum or Virgin-vine, is prepared from the root of the Velvet Leaf plant (family Menispermaceae). This classical homeopathic remedy is highly regarded for its powerful action on the urinary tract, prostate gland, bladder, and kidneys.

Pareira Brava Mother Tincture shows a marked affinity for urinary retention, renal colic, painful urination and straining to pass urine. It is especially indicated when the bladder feels distended yet urine passes only with extreme difficulty. Research highlights the presence of potent alkaloids with muscle-relaxant and anti-inflammatory properties, historically even used in anesthesia and for urinary tube inflammation.

Clinically, it is one of the most reliable remedies for prostate disorders, catheter-like bladder symptoms, and severe urinary distress.
