Mullein Oil

verbascum thapus
verbascum thapsus
Scrophularace

An oil produced by macerating Mullein flower
in olive oil in a corked bottle, during prolonged
exposure to the sun, or by keeping near the fire
for several days, is used as a local application
in country districts in Germany for piles and other
mucus membrane inflammation, and for frost
bites and bruises.

Recommended for earache and discharge
from the ear, and for any eczema
of the external ear and its canal.
Dr. Fernie (Herbal Simples) states that some of the most
brilliant results have been obtained in suppurative
inflammation of the inner ear by a single application
of Mullein oil, and that in acute or chronic cases,
two or three drops of this oil should be made to fall
in the ear twice or thrice in the day.

Mullein oil is a valuable destroyer of disease germs.
The fresh flowers, steeped for 21 days in olive oil,
are said to make an admirable bactericide.
