Characteristics—The leaves of several species of Barosma contain in vitté a volatile oil, having
a warm camphoraceous taste and an odour something like mint. There are no provings of the
remedy, and the only uses made of it have been with the tincture. But it has a markedly specific
effect on mucous membranes generally, and especially on the genito-urinary system, closely
resembling that of Sabal ser., Populus, Copaiva, and Thuja. Hale gives as indications: chronic
affections of genito-urinary organs having muco-purulent discharges, abundance of epithelium
mixed with pus and mucous corpuscles. Irritable bladder, with vesical catarrh or gravel; with
- spasmodic stricture.
- Prostatic disorders.
- Vaginal Leucorrhsa.
- Undue secretions from mucous
follicles of urethra, vesiculé seminales, or prostate produced by excessive venery or self-abuse.
