Synopsis

Source of validity: Traditional
Rating (out of 5): 1

Lycopodium is a remedy commonly used in homeopathic medicine, derived from the spores of the clubmoss plant Lycopodium clavatum. The use of Lycopodium for bedwetting (enuresis) is primarily rooted in homeopathic tradition, not scientific validation. Homeopathic practitioners have historically recommended Lycopodium for children who wet the bed, especially when the bedwetting is associated with symptoms such as anxiety, digestive disturbances, or a lack of confidence. However, these recommendations are based on homeopathic materia medica and practitioners’ clinical experiences rather than rigorous scientific studies. There is no well-established clinical evidence from randomized controlled trials or systematic reviews to support the efficacy of Lycopodium for treating bedwetting. Mainstream medical literature does not recognize Lycopodium as an effective or evidence-based treatment for nocturnal enuresis. As such, while its use persists within the context of homeopathic tradition, it is not supported by scientific research, and the overall strength of evidence is very weak (rated 1 out of 5, reflecting anecdotal reports and traditional usage only).
