have a question about remedy preparation and I can't get a hold of
our practitioner at the moment so I thought that maybe someone here
can give me some insight. I received a bottle that would hold
perhaps less than an ounce of liquid. The bottle was empty except
for pellets which would be dissolved in perhaps slightly more than
half an ounce of water and several drops of alcohol. I overfilled
the bottle so that with the dropper in the bottle the contents come
to the top. Usually I would use an olafactory dose after shaking but
with the bottle so full will the potency be affected, and will the
required shaking of the liquid contents be badly affected? Thanks
for any insight.
Thanks,
Gail
Hi Gail,
Don't stress about this, pour some of the liquid in the bottle
down the sink, giving the liquid remedy some room for good shaking. Cap
the bottle and shake and take the remedy as your prescriber indicated.
Homeopathic remedies are highly diluted already and your adding
too much water will not hurt it at all.
Warmly, Maria
