Hi Rosemary,

Just BTW, giving the same remedy in *any* lower potency will not antidote,
tho I've heard that giving the same remedy *one step* higher or lower can do
it (e.g. if you want to antidote a dose of 200c, give 199c or 201c, one
dose). Many prescribers routinely (ouch, bad word) have pts use a lower
potency to smooth bumps along the way, treat an acute, or to moderate an
aggravation (without antidoting, and without lessening the remedy's
effectiveness). I've usually seen 12 or 30 used to "supplement" or
"moderate" dose of 200 or higher.

Best,
Shannon

is an awfully sobering remark!
Would you be willing to tell us more about what happened, in case there are
lessons there that we should hear?

I assume the patient was very ill to begin with? How many doses, and etc.?

So confidence can be tempered with appropriate caution...
Thanks!
