{"id":13624,"remedy_name":"Coffea Cruda (HMT)","remedy_type":"Remedy","alternative_names":["Unroasted Coffee"],"miasm":"Psoric Miasm","temperament":"Neutral","aggravation_time":"Neutral\/Anytime","keynote_indications":"Coffee is used as a favourite drink in most countries of the world,\nespecially in the western world.   Coffee dispels sleep.  It stimulates\nthe nervous system, and enhances the flow of ideas and mental\nalertness.  The person cannot go to sleep  even if he so desires and\ntries.\n\nThe homoeopathic Coffea Cruda is prepared from the unroasted\nCoffee bean.  If sleeplessness is du e to excessive talking or mental\ncommotion, a dose or two of Coffea bring about peaceful sleep.  The\nperson is whisked into sleep without any preliminary slumber.  Nux\nVomica also has a similar feature of  bringing about sleep rapidly.\nOne symptom of Nux Vomica and Belladonna shared by Coffea is\nthat the noise agitates the pers on and loud voices perturb him.\nHowever in Coffea, the noise provoke s pain up to the periphery of the\nlimbs.  Also, noise rekindles the previ ous pains of the leg or the knee.\nIn fact, the re-appearance of old pa ins due to the noise is a typical\nfeature of Coffea.\n\nThe symptoms of Coffea are brought about by sudden joy rather than\nto grief.  In other words, sudden, happy news causes mental\ncommotion.  A loss of sleep due to profound grief needs to be treated\nwith different kinds of remedies.\n\nThe Coffea patient reacts badly to in take of alcohol.  In the countries\nwhere drinking is extremely comm on, a Coffea patient would refrain\nfrom drinking alcohol for fear of serious reaction, and alcoholics often\nuse coffee to dispel the effects of alcohol.\n\nIn a patient of Coffea, the hypersensitivity of the skin is extreme, and\nis in the form of a strange kind of  tingling and discomfort.  Regarding\nthe extreme sensitivity of the skin, Zincum Metallicum is the next in\norder.\n\nA Coffea patient has strong into lerance towards the sound of\nfootsteps.  Itchy rashes appear on the skin.  These are red in colour.\nThey appear and then disappear equally fast.  The underlying mental\n\nanguish causing these eruptions does not last long.  The skin\nconditions secondary to the diso rder of the stomach and blood, do\nhowever, last a long time.\n\nCoffea by nature is a rapidly eff ective form of treatment.  It works\npromptly to induce sleep when the sleeplessness is due to severe\nmental commotion or mental exhaustion .  Similarly, it benefits\nother ailments pretty rapidly also .  Some of the patients of Coffea\ndevelop hysteria.  Under the heavy emoti onal overlay, they lose\nconsciousness.  Their jaws close together tightly .  Severe headache\nand neuralgic pains (trigeminal neuralgia) on the face and a tendency\ntowards diarrhoea are also amongst the symptoms of Coffea.\n\nCoffea patients are extremely intelligent.  They react immediately\nwhen addressed.  Their senses  become sharp as does their sense of\nhearing.  They can perceive distant sounds and voices inaudible to\nothers.  When they retire to sleep, they cannot do so.  Instead, they\nhear the distant barking of the dogs or sounds produced by other\nanimals.  These unusual sounds inte nsify some of their preexisting\nsymptoms.  Interestingly enough, thes e patients happen to recall their\ngood old days, including the poetry they  have read in the past.  Their\nmental capability is enhanced im mensely.  Their thinking is not\nmerely superficial but their thought s are very deep and broad.  The\ncommotion provokes their subconscious mind bringing back old\nmemories and perception of distant sounds.  They can also recall good\nold tastes and fragrances.  All th ese are the happier and enjoyable\ncomponents of their overall symptoms.\n\nA Coffea patient is also very sensitive to cold.  The pain inside the\nmouth however, benefits from ice cold  water (the usual neuralgic pain\ndoes not follow any particular rule).  The toothache of a Coffea\npatient definitely responds to cold application.\n\nThe face of a Coffea patient is usuall y not congested or flushed but in\nsome situations the blood may rush towards the head.  The face and\nthe head then become warm, but th e patient remains fairly conscious\nand alert. Unlike Belladonna, he is not drowsy.\n\nAnother typical sign of Coffea is that the patient feels as if something\nis cracking open on the back of his head.\n\nNux Vomica is the most effective treatment to annul the effects of\nCoffea.  Among the Coffea symptoms in women, there is intense\ngenital itching.  The heartbeat is very fa st, and may become irregular\non hearing sudden happy or sad news.  The blood pressure rises, while\nthe urinary output decreases.\n\nAdjuvant: Aconite\nAntidote: Nux Vomica\nPotency: 30","modalities":"","symptoms_by_system":[],"schema_version":"1.0","api_provider":"Allahshafi"}
