dilutions. With each homeopathic dilution, the medicine is deconcentrated and then vigorously shaken

Which homeopathic dilution should i choose?

The level of the dilution does not correspond to the strength of the homeopathic medicine- a 30C is not
stronger than a 6C. The difference is in the level of action. While 6C is suitable for local symptoms, a 30C
or higher is more appropriate for general and behavioral symptoms, such as fever, rash, apprehension
or sleeplessness.

How Should I Read a Homeopathic Medicine label Such as “Arnica Montana 30C”?

Homeopathic medicine use Latin names, the international scientific denomination for source materials.
“Arnica Montana” is the Latin name of the source material, a perennial plan that grows one to feet tall
with bright yellow flowers. The “30” indicates that the source material has been homeopathic diluted 30
times. The “c” stands for “centesimal” and indicates that each of the 30 dilutions was made at the rate o
1/100.

The indication on the label of the single medicine tube does no match the symptom for which may health cares professional prescribed it. Why?

The same single medicine may be useful for several different conditions. For example, Gelsemium 30C
can be indicated for stress or fever and Sepia 6C can be indicated for bloating and lower back pain
during menstruation or hot flashes. Due to the small size of the container, we print the most common
indication for each medicine of the label. Therefore, the condition for which your health care
professional prescribed the medicine may not be listed.

How do i take homeopathic medicine?

The most efficient route of administration for oral homeopathic medicine is under the tongue
(sublingual absorption). Pellets and tablets dissolve quickly under the tongue- no water, chewing or
swallowing is required. To allow for better absorption, homeopathic medicines should be taken in a
mouth free of strong flavors, apart from meals (unless otherwise indicated on the box).

Can homeopathic medicine be taken In conjunction with other medications?

Homeopathic medicines above 4c have a low risk of side effects and no contraindications. They can be
taken with other conventional medications and are sometimes recommended to complement other
treatments.
