Drops (5D)
The drops are the most common choice and are often known to be the usual starting point in Sanum therapy. They are taken by mouth, are easy to adjust, and are also sold as Albicansan D5 Tropfen. A 10ml bottle usually lasts several weeks at label doses.
Capsules (4D)
A lower dilution than the drops, for people who prefer not to take drops or who are following a protocol that specifies capsules. Each pack has 20 capsules.
Ointment (3D)
For external use on the skin, in a 30g tube. It is traditionally used where fungal skin or nail complaints are present, and is applied once or twice a day to the affected area as directed.
Suppositories (3D)
A pack of 10, traditionally used for vaginal or rectal application. The usual label dose is one daily.
Can the forms be combined?
Practitioners sometimes use more than one form, for example drops by mouth with an ointment for the skin. Ask yours which is right for you, and read the leaflet in each pack.
What is Albicansan traditionally used for?
In Sanum therapy, Albicansan is often known to be used as an accompanying remedy where yeast overgrowth is a concern, for example in the gut, on mucous membranes or on the skin. It is not a replacement for medical treatment. Our article Candida Support: Homeopathic Options and When to See a Doctor explains where it fits.
Cautions
Not suitable for children under 12, in pregnancy or breastfeeding, with autoimmune conditions or yeast hypersensitivity. See a doctor for suspected infections.
