Oleander (Olnd.) is a key remedy for skin and gastrointestinal complaints, both of which are aggravated by acidic food. Skin complaints are usually worse on the right side and the person may be chilly yet will prefer cold drinks. They may also have episodes of trembling, weakness, or sensations of emptiness in the stomach, abdomen, or chest. Oleander is also a remedy to consider when when physical complaints are accompanied by sensitive skin. Oleander is poisonous as a plant or shrub but safe when prepared in homeopathic potencies.
