Sempervivum tectorum, also known as House Leek, may be used as a Homeopathic or used simply as a micro-nutritional (botanical). Homeopathic potencies accredit their strength and efficacy to the electromagnetic signatures of the original substrate; these are scientifically created dilutions and succussions of medicines such that generally not even a molecule of the original substrate or medicine is present in the medicine.

As a Homeopathic or used simply as a micro-nutritional, Sempervivum tectorum has demonstrated effectiveness against the following symptomology: "Is recommended for herpes zoster and cancerous tumors. Scirrhous indurations of tongue; mammary carcinoma; malignant ulcers of mouth; cancer of tongue, whole mouth very tender, tongue has ulcers, bleed easily, especially at night; much soreness of tongue with stabbing pains."
