Maria,
Thank you, the veterinarian called in Rx without hesitation but has no training in homeopathy to give guidance. Kitty Marley  is home again, not doing well. There will be mold remediation for a week as the cattery floor is being replaced. My friend is  an RN doing all she can w/ limited homeopathic knowledge. At this point dosing frequency would be the most helpful. He cannot go back to the 24 hr. clinic.

       Please be aware in the USA
 Crataegus is a Rx only remedy, but you can purchase
 Hawthorne   tincture or extract over the counter.

       One dose would be mercy and grace. I'm glad
 it's had such a favorable response for you. I hope it
 brings good response for kitty Marley as well. I agree, a
 case workup would benefit him. After your suggestion I saw
 an online link to VCA's, Veterinary Clinics of America,
 reference to use of hawthorn, primarily tincture, in cardiac
 cases. Kitty is at a VCA clinic. It was a useful segue way
 to the topic of homeopathic crataegus. The vet's open
 mindedness was welcome. Marley is more stable & coming
 home for continued care. Thank you for pointing us in a
 hopeful direction.  Best regards, Nan Wood

              Nan, I have never needed more than one dose of
 Crat to address irregular/speeding heart rate. On more than
 one occasion, I had the tincture handy and dosed a single
 time, then went on to use a 30c when it became available. I
 have used a dry pellet, but prefer to make a solution.
 Strangely, I had a very fatiguing day yesterday, with less
 recovery time/therapy and a late bedtime. I lay in bed for
 an hour or so before realizing my heart was very
 accelerated, with occasional big "thumpy" beats. I
 got up and found the Crat 30c solution and took a dose. I
 returned to bed, my heart slowed to normal, and I fell
 asleep immediately. I keep 200c pellets in my first aid kit,
 just in case. I would not have a problem with sequential
 doses if it worked but wore off, assuming other aspects of
 the case did not point to other remedies. --   Ginny Wilken

 6C are the only potencies she can purchase, can you suggest
 a dosing protocol suited to an acute situation? (Would 200C
 be appropriate in an acute situation if she can find it
 locally?) The tincture or extract may take longer to take
 effect re: heart rate. I'm hoping the homeopathic would
 have a more immediate response. I was able to search several
 articles on veterinary use of crataegus thanks to your
 suggestion. Nan Wood
