Coffea tosta (Coff-t.)

Coffea tosta (Coff-t.) appears in 74 rubrics in the Repertory. Of these, ten are single-remedy rubrics in which only this remedy is listed, and one is a small rubric with no more than two other remedies. Delusions are the strongest group with twelve main rubrics, followed by Fear and Phobia and Confusion of mind with six each.

Delusions and Motion

The delusions are most densely documented in the single-remedy rubrics. Listed, among others, are objects that turn or leave their place, a hammock above treetops, and vertigo with back-and-forth motion. One rubric reads that the person would "move first in one direction, then in the other".

Fear and Excitement

Fear and phobia concern a downward motion and impending danger on falling asleep. Excitement occurs during childbirth, and a small rubric expressly describes this. Anxiety and starting complete the picture.

Deeds and Answers

The desire to do good deeds and the desire to push things are each represented as a single-remedy rubric. Answering and Activity are among the more frequent main rubrics, without a clear line emerging from them.

Summary

In the rubrics, Coffea tosta is characterized above all by delusions of motion, space, and height, accompanied by fear and inner excitement. The ten single-remedy rubrics give the picture a distinct outline, while the small rubric shows only a fragment.

All rubrics of this remedy, the materia medica and the case work are in Rathmer’s Repertory.
