পরিচয়ঃ ইহার অপর নাম পটাসিয়াম হাইড্রেট । পোড়া পাথর (caustic lime) ও বায়ফসফেট-অব-পটাস এই দুইটির মিশ্রণে ইহা প্রস্তুত হয় । ইহা এন্টিসোরিক, এন্টিসাইকোটিক ও এন্টিসিপিলিটিক ঔষধ ।
ধাতুগত বৈশিষ্ট্যঃ ইহা দৃঢ়তন্তূ ও সোরাবিষদুষ্ট রোগীর পক্ষে ভাল খাটে।ক্রমে রোগ ভুগিতে ভুগিতে জরাজীর্ণ, চর্ম মলিন সাদাটে অথবা মলিন হলদেটে; তৎসহ আঁচিল সমূহ, বিশেষতঃ মুখমন্ডলের উপর। ইহার রোগী অত্যন্ত ভীতু ও সামান্য কারনে উদ্বিগ্ন হয়; সর্বদাই মন্দভাব বা দুর্ঘটনার বিষয় ভাবে। কাল চুল ও কালো চোখের তারা । ইহা পুরাতন রোগ ভোগকারী, বৃদ্ধ, ভগ্নস্বাস্থ্য ধাতুতে উপযোগী ।
- Antidote food / ঔষধের ক্রিয়ানাশক খাদ্য: কফি, কর্পূর ।
- Antidote / ক্রিয়ানাশকঃ এসাফি, ডালকামারা, গুয়ায়েকাম, নাক্স ভমিকা, কলোফাইলাম, কফিয়া

-
কষ্টিকামের সহিত ফসফরাসের প্রতিবন্ধকতা রহিয়াছে। এই দুইটি ঔষধের কোন একটি অপর ঔষধের পরে ব্যবহার করা উচিৎ নহে।
-
একাঙ্গীন পক্ষাঘাত বিশেষত ডান অঙ্গের বাত বা পক্ষাঘাত।
-
আশঙ্কা, উদ্বেগ, নৈরাশ্য অত্যন্ত প্রবল।

কষ্টিকামের সহিত ফসফরাসের প্রতিবন্ধকতা রহিয়াছে। এই দুইটি ঔষধের কোন একটি অপর ঔষধের পরে ব্যবহার করা উচিৎ নহে।
-
কাশি যতই শুষ্ক ও ক্লেশদায়ক হউক না কেন খুব ঠান্ডা জল পান করিবার পরই কাশির উপশম হয় ।
-
তরুণ পীড়ায় ইহার ক্রিয়া খুব দ্রুত কিন্তু চিররোগে অপেক্ষাকৃত ধীর ।
-
পুরাতন পীড়ায় ইহার উচ্চ শক্তি ব্যবহার করা উচিৎ ।
কাতরতাঃ
- শীতকাতর (প্রথম গ্রেড): [Dr. Robert Gibson Miller এবং James Tyler Kent]

ক্রিয়াস্থলঃ গলা এবং চর্মের উপর ইহার প্রধান ক্রিয়া। ঠান্ডা লাগিবার ফলে স্নায়ুসমূহের পক্ষাঘাত, শোক বা দীর্ঘকাল রোগ ভোগ জনিত মস্তিষ্কের বা মেরুমজ্জার ও শৈষ্মিক ঝিল্লীর দুর্বলতা উৎপন্ন করে। পাকস্থলীর ক্রিয়ার বৈলক্ষণ্য সৃষ্টি করে।
হ্রাস/উপশমঃআদ্র এবং জলসিক্ত আবহাওয়ায় এবং উত্তাপে উপশম, শয্যার গরমে উপশম, ঠান্ডা জল পানে, গরম বাতাসে উপশম।
বৃদ্ধিঃ শুষ্ক ঠান্ডা বাতাসে, পরিষ্কার সুন্দর আবহাওয়ায়, গাড়ী চলিবার সময় বৃদ্ধি, উপসর্গ সম্বন্ধে (বিশেষতঃ অর্শ) চিন্তা করিলে, স্নান করিলে, শীতল বাতাসে, জলে ভিজিলে, সন্ধ্যাকালে, ঘুম হইতে উঠিলে, খাইবার পর, কফি পানে, চলিবার সময় বৃদ্ধি।
