Calcarea Fluorica is a homeopathic tissue salt (a highly diluted form of calcium fluoride), on the U.S. market since about 1984 under many brand names, marketed for thick or greenish nasal discharge, hemorrhoid itching, chapped skin and tooth support, though these uses rest on traditional homeopathic practice, not FDA-reviewed evidence. Because it is so diluted, most people notice no side effects at all, and the label says to stop right away if anything feels off. The real risk is relying on it too long, so get severe or lingering symptoms properly checked, and ask before using it if you are pregnant or breastfeeding.
Clinical pearls
- Chew the tablets rather than swallowing them whole, and take each dose about 30 minutes away from food.
- For children 6 and older, crush the smaller dose and dissolve it in water, and do not give it to children under 6.
- Rectal bleeding, even when you suspect hemorrhoids, deserves a prescriber's look rather than a homeopathic remedy.
- It is labeled as not interacting with other remedies, herbs or supplements, but it should never replace a prescribed medicine.

Calcarea Fluorica interactions

According to its labeling, Calcarea Fluorica as a traditional biochemic remedy is described as not interacting with other remedies, herbs, or supplements. Still, a few points worth knowing:
- Other homeopathic remedies: Labeled as non-interacting, but check with a professional if combining multiple products
- Herbs and supplements: Also described as non-interacting, though professional guidance is always wise
Not a complete list. The label covers the interactions the manufacturer studied or reported, and our own interaction database does not cover every medicine either. Bring your full medication list, including vitamins and herbal products, to your pharmacist.

The FDA lists Calcarea Fluorica products.
Calcarea Fluorica side effects reported to the FDA (FAERS)
After a medicine reaches the market, patients, doctors and drugmakers can send the FDA reports of problems they think may be linked to it. Here’s what’s been reported for Calcarea Fluorica — a signal of what to watch for, not proof the drug caused it.
Source: openFDA, from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS). These are voluntary reports — they don’t prove the drug caused the effect, and counts reflect how often something was reported, not how often it actually happens. Reports also often name the very problem the medicine is taken for — a common reason to file one is that the drug didn’t help — so for a pain reliever you may see “pain” high on the list; that points to why the report was filed, not to the drug causing the symptom. This counts every report that lists Calcarea Fluorica in any role, so the total runs higher than the FDA’s official dashboard, which counts only cases where the drug is the suspect. For the authoritative figures, see the FDA FAERS Public Dashboard. Always talk to your pharmacist or doctor.
