SERUM ANGUILLAE Dilution

Serum anguillae (Eel Serum) is a powerful renal-acting medicine, drawn from the blood-toxic ichthyotoxin of the eel. While Digitalis is known as the classic heart tonic, Serum anguillae is its renal counterpart—targeting acute kidney dysfunction, especially in the context of heart disease or infection-triggered nephritis. This shines when the kidneys suddenly shut down—when urine output drops, albumin appears, and uremic symptoms loom. In such moments, Serum anguillae helps reinitiate diuresis, clears albumin from the urine, and reverses the shut-down of the renal system—often when nothing else will.

SBL’s Serum anguillae can be helpful in the following conditions:

Kidney & Urinary

• Sudden onset of anuria (no urine), oliguria (low output), or albuminuria (protein in urine).
• Acute nephritis, especially when triggered by cold, infection, or toxins.
• For cases of cardiac uremia—when the kidneys stop working in the course of heart disease.
• Helpful in hematuria (blood in urine) and renal shutdown threatening uremic poisoning.
• Rapid relief of albuminuria and restoration of urinary flow.

Heart & Circulation

• In heart disease with renal complications, where the heart begins to fail and kidney function collapses.
• Useful when when there is hypertension and oliguria but no marked edema.
• Mitral insufficiency, asystole (failing heart), and dyspnea with poor urinary secretion.
• Efficacious in functional heart weakness, especially with compensation failure and urinary suppression.
