Active ingredient and composition

The active ingredient of Helixor® A SE IV is an extract from fresh pine mistletoe extract (1:20) Viscum album ssp.abietis.Water for injections and sodium chloride (99.91:0.09) are used as extractants.No prescription is required for this product.

Implementation of mistletoe therapy

Mistletoe therapy is tailored to the individual needs of the patient and requires medical supervision.The doctor checks whether the therapy is an option, selects the appropriate type of mistletoe and explains how to use it.The therapy can then be carried out independently at home.

When used for the first time, the mistletoe extract is injected under the skin (subcutaneously), ideally into a fold of skin on the stomach or thigh.The injection is usually given three times a week.Long-term use over several months is recommended, although breaks of several weeks are possible after the adjustment period.

Body reactions

The body can react to mistletoe therapy with reddened puncture sites, sometimes with swelling or itching, as well as a slight increase in body temperature (0.5 to 1 degree Celsius).These signs are harmless and show the activity of the immune system.If you have a fever over 38 degrees Celsius or severe redness, the next dose should not be injected.In case of allergic reactions, a doctor should be contacted.

Assumption of costs

In palliative situations or to mitigate severe side effects of chemotherapy, statutory health insurance companies can cover the costs of mistletoe therapy.A doctor's prescription is required for this.
