This is where you will find mention of the Sulph, Calc, Lyc trio
it doesn't mean to give these remedies in sequence unless the patient's symptoms present in a way to require them, otherwise it becomes routine prescribing with no good reasoning behind it.
Kent’s Triads
Sulphur, Calcarea, and Lycopodium represent Hahnemann's three cardinal antipsoric remedies.
These remedies hold the template of the plant, mineral, and animal family remedies in chronic disease.
Clarke wrote in his Dictionary of Materia Medica, under Calcarea carb discussion:
"Calcarea is one of the greatest monuments of Hahnemann's genius.
His method of preparing insoluble substances brought to light in this instance a whole world of therapeutic power formerly unknown.
Moreover, Calcarea is one of the polychrest remedies, and ranks with Sulphur and Lycopodium at the head of the antipsorics.
It is absolutely essential to a correct appreciation of the homoeopathic materia medica that these three medicines should be thoroughly known, as these are in a sense the standards around which the rest are grouped.
All three have a very wide range and deep action."
He then goes on to differentiate remedy modalities.
From
Kent’s Lectures on Homeopathic Materia Medica, under the discussion of Fluoric Acid:
"Then it is that this medicine comes in the series.
Fluor. ac. follows Sil. as naturally as Sil. follows Puls..
There are other remedies that exist in threes, but the most common ones you will think of will be Sulph., Calc. and Lyc.
Sulph., Sars. and Sepia
Coloc., Caust. and Staph., which often follow each other and rotate in this way.
Do not let these facts make you give a routine remedy unless the symptoms agree, but it does help to remember that remedies are somewhat similar.
It is true that Puls., Sil. and Fluor, ac. are similar all along the line as to the nature of their symptoms."
