Drops
Liquid dilution for oral intake, rubbing in
Bacillus firmus SA. C. 501 (DSM 4816) 6X
1 ml liquid dilution contains: Medically active substance: 1 ml Bacillus firmus SA. C. 501 (firm specific strain name) = DSM 4816 6X dil. Other constituents: purified water.
Recarcin is a preparation from the Bacillus firmus SA.C. 501 (DSM 4816), a particular strain from the group of non-pathogenic bacilli. Experience has shown that Recarcin raises the defensive capacity of a normal bacterial flora. Its content of polysaccharides, ferments, and specific protein combinations exerts a special effect of Recarcin that is to be understood in the sense of an immune- and irritative therapy. Thereby, the progressing disease process is blocked and the specific defense capacity is activated. In immunological test models, a significant rise in phagocytic activity has been established. A strong rise in the T-lymphocyte proliferation also confirms Recarcin as a potent immune modulator.
Homeopathic remedy: To be used according to standard homeopathic indications. For subacute and chronic inflammations, conditions of weakness, especially those caused by fever, for immune modulation.
Unless otherwise prescribed: For oral intake: 1-3 x daily 2-8 drops before a meal. For rubbing in: 2-3 x weekly 5-10 drops at the location of the disease or into the bend of the elbow.
None known.
None known. Should hypersensitivity occur, discontinue medication and treat symptomatically.
Incompatibilities with other remedies or vaccines are not known. However, an interval of at least 4 weeks should be observed to vaccinations. The simultaneous treatment with immunosuppresives may weaken the effect of Recarcin.
None known.
Do not use if seal is broken or missing. This remedy should not be used past its expiration date. Protect from light and heat during storage. As with any drug, if you are pregnant or nursing a baby, seek professional advice before taking this product.
Dependent on the advice of the physician or health care professional.
In isopathic therapy Recarcin is employed as an unspecific irritative agent for all chronic diseases. The alternating administration of Recarcin and Utilin proved a success. Also under a noticeable stimulus threshold a good effect of Recarcin is achieved.
The following dosage forms are available: 5 ml dropper bottle 6X, 1 ml ampule 10 and 50 4X, 6X, 10 suppositories 6X, 5 capsules 4X, 6X.
Recarcin® 4X , 6X
Ampules
Liquid dilution for injection
Bacillus firmus SA. C. 501 (DSM 4816) 4X or 6X
1 ampule of 1 ml contains: Medically active substance: 1 ml Bacillus firmus SA. C. 501 (firm specific strain name) = DSM 4816 4X or 6X aqueous dilut. Other constituents: isotonic sodium chloride solution.

Homeopathic remedy: To be used according to standard homeopathic indications. Chronic inflammations of the serosae, disturbances of glands, such as thyroid gland, pancreatic gland, ovaries (in connection with dysmenorrhea or primary and secondary amenorrhea), chronic inflammations of the mucous membranes such as the oral and nasal ones, of the respiratory tract (chronic bronchitis), of the gastro-intestinal tract (gastritis, colitis syndrome, ventricular and duodenal ulcer), arthritis, arthrosis, for immune modulation.
Unless otherwise prescribed: 1 ampule of 1 ml to be injected deeply intramuscularly - regularly intragluteally - while the patient is lying down, 1 x fortnightly. Normally the treatment is started with the administration of capsules 6X or 4X or with injection 6X. In case of absent or weak reactions the dosage may be gradually raised by shorter intervals - 2 ampules weekly at the most - and/or by the injection of strength 4X. In case of strong reactions, injections have to be discontinued; the treatment can be continued with the dosage form capsules. As a general advice the dosage has to be chosen adequately, so that strong general reactions do not occur and that the local reactions are confined to the site of injections.
Fever, conditions of weakness. Do not medicate in case of known allergy against Bacillus firmus.
None known. Generally well tolerated. Occasionally local reactions like rubefaction, swelling or painfulness may be observed, normally vanishing without treatment. These effects are not to be seen as adverse reactions, but rather as an expression of effectiveness. In the first 2 or 3 days after the injection sometimes conditions of weakness, fortified expectoration, slight painfulness of the region or subfebrile temperatures may show. Strong general reactions are always a sign of overdosage or of incorrect injection technique. In this case the treatment can be continued orally with Recarcin capsules 6X or 4X. Should hypersensitivity occur, discontinue medication and treat symptomatically.
None known. An interval of 2 weeks should be kept to the administration of vaccinations. In cases of simultaneous treatment with immuno-suppressive remedies, the effectiveness of Recarcin may be influenced.
None known.
Do not use if seal is broken or missing. This remedy should not be used past its expiration date. Protect from light and heat during storage. As with any drug, if you are pregnant or nursing a baby, seek professional advice before taking this product.
