Okoubaka

[Shannon Nelson]

? I haven't found Helios expensive, or has my poor memory blocked something?
Somewhere in the past I got it either from Hahnemann (US) or Helios, can't remember.

Helios is actually much cheaper than Hahnemann for us in the USA, at least for LM nosodes even with exhange rate and shipping.
Hahemann doesn't make but resells Helios LM nosodes, give you half as much quantity but costs more.

That's more what I thought I remembered.

I generally buy from Hahnemann even tho they're more expensive, because I feel it's important to support our local pharmacies. (And on my small orders it's only a matter of a few dollars anyway.) Hahnemann's usually arrive faster -- within a day or a few, whereas Helios can take much longer -- but not always.

Hahnemann carries most remedies, but Helios carries even a few more.

Both are excellent, IMO.

Sounds like your computer needs a dose of Okoubaka. How would you administer it?

With Helios I got Opium, Cannibis S & I which Hahnemann can't sell in the USA and nosodes w/o a homeopath's prescription.
For nosodes, Hahnemann Labs (meaning USA gov't) requires written or email confirmation from a registered/licensed homeopath and want to see their website, etc. to ensure they are real before sending. Can be a homeopath from any country.
Doesn't work well if you want to order various nosodes in various potencies that are not just for your own use or case.
Many homeopaths, especially USA ones, probably will not give OK for lay homeopaths like us to do that.
Is there a homeopath here who will provide approval for us lay homeopaths to order whatever from Hahnemann Labs?

It's available from Hahnemann Labs in California.

I *think* it is probably a legal thing, and that having approval from a registered homeopath would not be sufficient. I'm not certain, but that's my understanding.

Last yr I needed a listed remedy from Hahnemann. All they needed was a call-in from a registered/licensed homeopath or other
practitioner. A fax letter to them would work, too. Just call them to ask their requirement.

Thank you Donna! I will research that. I had ordered a medicine in 2009 from England because of my adrenal insufficiency and the FDA confiscated my order. It was so much cheaper to buy in England than here in the US. It was a cortisol replacement from a company in London. I know that the FDA has stopped all orders of ERFA (thyroid replacement medicine) from outside the US. I take Tirosint so I am lucky there. I will order the Okoubaka from England and pray that the FDA doesn't confiscate I truly appreciate your help.
