-SANKARAN R.,
Nux vomica is a remedy of the plant kingdom, and of the psoric miasm. It is a well-known remedy, its main expressions being hard, zealous, ambitious, impatient. Nux vomica is a person who gets his thing done by hook or by crook, and who is quite hopeful about getting it done.
He is a hard task master. He is an irritable, passionate person, and very fastidious. If anything bothers him, he must get it out of the way. For example when he is constipated, he strains and strains till the stool is out, otherwise he gets no relief; he is ameliorated after passing stool.
Naturally, he is not a very patient person. He can be jealous. He is

malicious and, when angry, expresses himself without much inhibition; in a way, he is like a person who has drunk alcohol. “Insanity of drunkards” is the rubric that explains the Nux vomica state quite well. Nux vomica craves for alcohol and for all forms of stimulants, and may also be addicted to laxatives. Nux vomica also has anger when obliged to answer.
Once a colleague of mine pointed out a couple of rubrics of Nux vomica: “Delusion, bed, evening, someone gets into and no room in it” and “Delusion, bed, someone had sold it”. The impatience, which Nux vomica shows in getting what he wants, can be as if he is trying to get his bed back, the place of his security and repose. He seeks this security and repose; he wants it and he wants it fast. Unless he is a go-getter, he will be finished in this world of competition; his bed is going to get occupied by someone else. This is how Nux vomica sees the world.
Nux vomica is complementary to Lycopodium and Sulphur.
In some aspects Lycopodium resembles Nux vomica with the irritability, impatience and a dictatorial nature. These two remedies may come close but the main difference is that Nux vomica is not cowardly inside; he is more rash and audacious, more forceful and expressive, more impulsive and explosive. From a young age we can see this difference. Lycopodium has a shy, introverted childhood, while Nux vomica in childhood is daring and mischievous.
In adulthood, when given a job, Nux vomica will do it by “hook or crook”, breaking through all obstacles in his way, like a road-roller. He can often get violent. Lycopodium is indeed not so ardent and daring. He weighs each step and does not rush into things. If the obstacle is big, he hesitates and may even withdraw.
Nux vomica may sometimes follow Sulphur and vice-versa. They are opposite states: Nux vomica is so clean and Sulphur so dirty; Nux vomica is so chilly, Sulphur so hot; Nux vomica is ardent, vehement and Sulphur is lazy and careless. Hence they are complementary.
Lachesis, Apis, Hyoscyamus and Nux vomica are among the most jealous remedies of our Materia Medica. Apis is busy and restless, Lachesis is sarcastic, Hyoscyamus shameless and foolish, whereas Nux vomica is quarrelsome along with being jealous.
Chamomilla and Nux vomica are very similar and are inimical remedies. Both are so sensitive, violent and intolerant of pain that one can easily mistake the two remedies.
Nux vomica is the acute of Sepia, being also concerned with occupation and business, with tremendous irritability and like Sepia being chilly, constipated, etc. Sepia has two separate themes of relationship and occupation and there is a conflict between these two. In a very acute situation of business failure, a Sepia person may need Nux vomica.
Nux vomica is complementary to Ignatia which in turn is the acute of Natrum muriaticum, which is complementary to Sepia.
