Aceticum Acidum, also known as acetic acid, is a homeopathic remedy that is most often prescribed for thin people with pale faces. This medicine when taken in its non-homeopathic form will produce a significant anemia condition. Anemia is a serious symptom in which there is a decrease in the number of red blood cells (RBCs) or in which there is less than the normal amount of hemoglobin in the blood. Because hemoglobin, found inside red blood cells, normally carries oxygen from the lungs to the tissues, anemia causes hypoxia, or oxygen starvation, in the organs. Since human cells depend on oxygen to survive, any form of anemia can have a wide range of clinical consequences.
Patients with anemia most often show a variety of symptoms, including a feeling of weakness or fatigue, general malaise, and sometimes a lack of concentration. They may also experience shortness of breath or dyspnea, even after the slightest exertion. In the most severe cases of anemia, the body can compensate for the lack of oxygen by showing signs of palpitations, angina, intermittent leg cramps, or symptoms of heart failure.
Aceticum Acidum will also induce conditions of bloating, lack of energy, frequent fainting, respiratory distress, weak heart, vomiting, profuse urination, and sweating. In some cases there will be bleeding in parts of the body.
