Quick Facts

Who Ferr Phos Is For

• People wanting a homeopathic option for the temporary relief of minor inflammation and redness
• Anyone who likes to start a tissue salt at the first stage of a minor respiratory ailment
• Households that keep a "first aid" tissue salt in the cupboard
• Tissue salt users pairing salts by stage — Ferr Phos first, then Kali Mur
• People who prefer a small dissolvable tablet

Who this product is NOT for:

• Anyone with lactose intolerance or a milk (dairy) allergy, and vegans — the tablets are made on a lactose base
• Anyone needing an iron supplement — 0.5 mcg of iron phosphate at 6X does not supply dietary iron; see our Iron Supplements instead
• High fever, breathing difficulty or symptoms lasting more than a few days — see a health care practitioner

Vitamart's Take

Ferr Phos is the "first aid" salt in Martin & Pleasance's line, and its label is about early, minor complaints: minor inflammation, redness and the first stage of a minor respiratory ailment. Tissue salt users often reach for it first and move on to Kali Mur once mucous congestion sets in. One clarification we get asked about: despite the iron in its name, this is a homeopathic 6X salt and not an iron supplement. If you want the classic two-salt pairing in one tablet, Comb T combines Ferr Phos with Kali Mur.

How Ferr Phos Compares

Ferr Phos vs. Kali Mur (No. 5)

Ferr Phos is labelled for minor inflammation, redness and the first stage of minor respiratory ailment. Kali Mur is labelled for mucous congestion, coughs and sore throat — the usual next salt.

Ferr Phos vs. Comb T

Comb T combines Ferr Phos and Kali Mur and is labelled for the temporary relief of inflammation, onset of fever and sore throat. Comb J adds Nat Mur to those two for chest congestion, coughs and colds.

Tablets vs. Ferr Phos Spray

The spray holds the same salt without a lactose base but contains ethanol. The tablets are alcohol-free.
