Abstract:
The selection of potency as well as repetition of doses requires vigorous research and standardization associated with prescription of potentised medicines. The concept of minimum dose is accepted by all homoeopathic physicians but what constitutes minimum dose and its repetition in relation to different diseases has not been properly described in textbooks of Homoeo-therapeutics. It is a general notion that in acute cases, high potency is more suitable than low potency where as in chronic cases, low potency is more suitable than higher potency.
Many stalwarts in Homoepathy have adopted different potencies for use in their clinical practice. For example, Dr. Kent and Dr. Nash used to prescribe medicine in higher potency where as Dr. Clark and Dr. Boericke used low potencies.
So, this difference of using potencies by stalwarts in homoeopathy offers a scope to see scientifically the difference between action of indicated medicines in different potencies.
Every homoeopathic physician knows that medicinal action of indicated medicine starts immediately but there is no available documentation to prove this, that’s why the general notion in public about homoeopathy, is that it acts slowly which needs to be looked at.
Objective: To study the effectiveness of Homoeopathic medicines in one week.
