Hi,

Iscador is an aqueous extract from fresh mistletoe (viscum album). One ampoule of 1 ml contains the extract of 60 mg mistletoe. Iscador is recommended in all malignant diseases, in precancerous conditions and for prevention of relapse, joint disorders etc. It is supposed to be taken subcutaneously according to a rhythmic schedule. The clinical efficacy of Iscador is derived from the demonstrattion of proteins from mistletoe with cancerostatic activity. Substitute for Iscador injection are Vysorel / Isorel, Isugran, Helixor, Eurixor, Cefalektin, Lektinol, Mistel Curarina, Misteltropfen, Mistletoe, Nat Jmeli, Plenosol N, Viscysat etc.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
