Hyland's Leg Cramps, with Quinine, 100 tablets (Pack of 3) Review

Hyland's Leg Cramps, with Quinine, 100 tablets (Pack of 3)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a homeopathic remedy for leg cramps. Since the FDA is taking Quinine Sulfate off the market soon unless it is prescribed for Malaria, this product can be used to replace Quinine Sulfate. No prescripton is needed and it is an excellent remedy that we have been using for years. It is quite inexpensive, especially if you purchase it from Amazon.com

Boiron - Arnica Montana 30c, 30c, 80 pellets Review

Boiron - Arnica Montana 30c, 30c, 80 pellets
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I understand where the first commentater with the 1-star rating may be coming from. However, the user must understand how this Homeopathic medicine works. Arnica Montana does exactly what it says, only not like Allopathic drugs. Used in conjunction with the Arnica Gel when an injury has occured - bruising, swelling and pain is essentially minimalized or stopped. The pellets work internally, and are gentle, the gel works topically with no odor or stickiness.
This combination is what i use for myself and my children- twin boys under 2yrs old, who are constantly getting bumps and falls. Just over the weekend, my son ran out a slider door onto a concrete patio , landed flat on his forhead. We immediately used Arnica Gel and pellets on the heavily dented area on his forhead that was starting to swell, and continued that every hour or so for the next day as needed, and my son had virtually no swelling and no bruising.
I personally use the pellets if my muscles are sore, I describe their effectiveness by : after taking them, i go about my day, and notice later on that i haven't had a complaining thought about the pain i was feeling before...i do find i take more doses than i would an nsaid, but it works.

HeadOn - Apply Directly to Forehead Migraine Relief .2 oz (5.67 g) Review

HeadOn - Apply Directly to Forehead Migraine Relief .2 oz (5.67 g)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I get frequent migraines and this stuff helps so much. I still take a pain reliever but then I apply the head on all over my neck, and forehead, even my temple areas. Anywhere the pain is. It takes a couple of minutes but then you start to feel the cooling sensation. It is almost like you are given a different sensation to focus on other than your pain. It really does help me a lot. I keep a tube in my bedroom, in the kitchen, in the bathroom, in my purse... I am sure to have some on hand all of the time. It is great! The migraine is better than the regular because it is stronger. The regular doesn't do much for me.

Average Reviews:

I own a day care with a rough 2 acre playground in Texas hill country. Things happen all the time and the teachers all know to reach for the Wan Hua Oil. In most cases, the bruise is hardly noticeable a few hours later when we report the injury to the parent. I was told about this oil during a treatment at the Academy of Oriental Medicine in Austin. Compare to the price of arnica. I love Chinese medicine.

Badger Headache Soother 1oz tin 1 oz (28 g) Review

Badger Headache Soother 1oz tin 1 oz (28 g)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I've been using Badger products for years, and I have hoped that they would make a balm like this for some time. I'm a chronic migraine sufferer; I get migraines 3 or more times per week. As an adjunct to my drug therapy, this stuff works beautifully, helping me to relax a bit while I wait for my medication to take effect. The peppermint/lavender scent actually lessens my nausea. Rubbing the product into my temples seems to have some effect on the pain as well. Don't get me wrong: I don't think this product on its own would get rid of one of my migraines. But having this simple product handy when I am suffering so badly does help.

Hyland's - Arnica Montana 30x, 250 tablets Review

Hyland's - Arnica Montana 30x, 250 tablets
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I was at a plastic surgeon's office one day, learning a technique in skin care. He told the patient that she needed to buy some of this "Arnica Montanicum" so that her bruising would resolve quickly. He told the next patient that if he used this orally BEFORE and AFTER surgery there was a good chance he would bruise less. I sort of stored the information away and later got a tube of it as a gel with a free little bottle of the pills in a gift pack.
AMAZING. Bruises that looked deep and purple, like blueberries at the crook of my arm, were just pale yellow and barely visible in 48 hours.
The next month, I tried the little pills, thinking they wouldn't really work as well. (I had given my gel to a friend with a huge, nasty bruise but knew I was going to have a horrible bruise after walking into the bureau. HARD.) I kept up the dosing as they taste just fine (little bits of sugar actually) and was amazed at how my muscle pain resolved quickly (I hadn't even counted on that) and I never did form a real bruise. As I take aspirin, I used to always have bruises all over me. I don't have a bruise on me today.
BTW, the surgery patient went back to her eye doctor and he said "Wow! You don't have a bruise on you. That's amazing."
She told him she took the Arnica and he smiled. Then he had to make the typical allopathic comment about "No controlled studies proving Arnica's utility."
Right, unless you count the 100 + years of Homeopathic experience with it. So patronizing, some of these guys.

The only reason, Mr. M.D., that there isn't a "controlled study", at least one you might have read, is that there isn't any huge money in it for the pharmaceutical giants.
So, this is not to be construed as medical advice, but if you would like to try something benign to avoid or treat bruising and pain, give it a try.
Remember to always tell your doctor and pharmacist about herbal or homeopathic meds!

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I have been using this salve for years. When the skin on my fingers splits from dryness, or when I have a small cut, I use a little at bedtime and 95% of the time, by morning, the nuisance is gone! The other 5% of the time it is gone by the next day. It is also very good for dry skin or when working in the yard and your fingers get tore up. I even use it after laying cement to soothe the skin. There is nothing like it in the stores - I have tried!

Homeostasis Labs Children's Teething Relief, 50-Count Review

Homeostasis Labs Children's Teething Relief, 50-Count
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Our little guy has been cranking out the teeth, often working on two at a time, so we've had the opportunity to try numerous brands of teething tablets, especially since Hyland's was voluntarily recalled recently. Homeostasis is definitely right up there with Hyland's. They both dissolve far quicker and more easily than the other brands we've tried, and while Homeostasis seems to take a bit longer to kick in than Hyland's they seem to soothe his little mouth just as well. I appreciate that the 50 Homeostasis tablets will last a lot longer than the 125 Hyland's tablets do, since Homeostasis calls for one tablet every 4 hours, as opposed to the hourly regimen of Hyland's, thus justifying the price difference between the two brands.
With all that said, I do have some critiques:
-these tablets are very, very small and can be tricky to manage while holding a child whose teeth are huting him.
-the packaging doesn't make this any easier. The method to get the tablets from the cardboard container isn't the easiest to work with, and I have concers about how fresh it'll keep the tablets since it's not airtight by any means.
-the packaging could be 1/5 the size it currently is and still use too much material.
Even so, I heartily recommend these tablets.

Cobroxin Topical Gel for Chronic Pain 2 oz (60 ml)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I ordered this product several days ago and applied it according to the directions on joints that have been giving me chronic pain for years. The instructions say it takes 3 to 4 applications per day for about 4 days for it to become effective (then you can reduce the number of applications per day), but I was getting relief within a couple of days. Corbroxin is working great with none of the side effects the FDA says accompany many of the common pain relievers out there. This is great stuff.
