Aggravations at end with medicinal solutions
Posted: Wed May 09, 2007 6:17 pm
§ 248 Sixth Edition
For this purpose, we potentize anew the medicinal solution1 (with perhaps
8, 10, 12 succussions) from which we give the patient one or (increasingly)
several teaspoonful doses, in long lasting diseases daily or every second
day, in acute diseases every two to six hours and in very urgent cases
every hour or oftener. Thus in chronic diseases, every correctly chosen
homoeopathic medicine, even those whose action is of long duration, may be
repeated daily for months with ever increasing success. If the solution is
used up (in seven to fifteen days) it is necessary to add to the next
solution of the same medicine if still indicated one or (though rarely)
several pellets of a higher potency with which we continue so long as the
patient experiences continued improvement without encountering one or
another complaint that he never had before in his life. For if this
happens, if the balance of the disease appears in a group of altered
symptoms then another, one more homoeopathically related medicine must be
chosen in place of the last and administered in the same repeated doses,
mindful, however, of modifying the solution of every dose with thorough
vigorous succussions, thus changing its degree of potency and increasing it
somewhat. On the other hand, should there appear during almost daily
repetition of the well indicated homoeopathic remedy, towards the end of
the treatment of a chronic disease, so-called (§ 161) homoeopathic
aggravations by which the balance of the morbid symptoms seem to again
increase somewhat (the medicinal disease, similar to the original, now
alone persistently manifests itself). The doses in that case must then be
reduced still further and repeated in longer intervals and possibly stopped
several days, in order to see if the convalescence need no further
medicinal aid. The apparent symptoms (Schein - Symptome) caused by the
excess of the homoeopathic medicine will soon disappear and leave
undisturbed health in its wake. If only a small vial say a dram of dilute
alcohol is used in the treatment, in which is contained and dissolved
through succussion one globule of the medicine which is to be used by
olfaction every two, three or four days, this also must be thoroughly
succussed eight to ten times before each olfaction.
1 Made in 40, 30, 20, 15 or 8 tablespoons of water with the addition of
some alcohol or a piece of charcoal in order to preserve it. If charcoal is
used, it is suspended by means of a thread in the vial and is taken out
when the vial is succussed. The solution of the medicinal globule (and it
is rarely necessary to use more than one globule) of a thoroughly
potentized medicine in a large quantity of water can be obviated by making
a solution in only 7-8 tablespoons of water and after thorough succussion
of the vial take from it one tablespoon and put it in a glass of water
(containing about 7 to 8 spoonfuls), this stirred thoroughly and then given
a dose to the patient. If he is unusually excited and sensitive, a teaspoon
of this solution may be put in a second glass of water, thoroughly stirred
and teaspoonful doses or more be given. There are patients of so great
sensitiveness that a third or fourth glass, similarly prepared, may be
necessary. Each such prepared glass must be made fresh daily. the globule
of the high potency is best crushed in a few grains of sugar of milk which
the patient can put in the vial and be dissolved in the requisite quantity
of water.
