General Action

Most, if not all, of the symptoms hitherto observed are intimately associated with gastric disturbances.

Clinical

      The most characteristic indication for Abies in indigestion is the distress as if something were knotted up in the stomach. It has often proved curative in the dyspepsia resulting from the use of tea and tobacco.
