Query re. homeopathic prognoses
Hi,Just had a quick question about homeopathic prognoses. Is the idea that long term imbalances in the body can be corrected by a finite number of doses of the correct substance?
Or will the person taking the correct remedy be dependent on it for the rest of their lives to stop the unwanted symptoms coming back?

This is aboslutely true. The effect of a single dose can be extremely profound and lasting.
Once the body has reacted to the correct remedy , the symptoms never come back the same, even if they do, it is with a lesser intensity and a repetition of 1 or 2 doses of a higher potency will permanently cure the problem.
These medicines never require long repetition.

I tried silica and pulsatilla for ear infection and menstrual problems respectively. In both cases a single dose of 30C cleared the problems so completely it was as if they'd never existed. In one minute. One tiny pillule as opposed to ten days of antibiotics.
Incredible.

Dear kitfire,
I will quote Hahnemann himself for this
Vide aphorism 242 of the 4th Organon.
The Single Unit Dose
'As long, therefore, as the progressive improvement continues from the medicine administered, so long we can take for granted that the duration of the action of the helpful medicine, in this case at least, continues, and hence all repetition of any dose of medicine is forbidden.'
The same point is also stressed in Aphorism 245.
'Even one dose of the same medicine which has up to now proved beneficial, if repeated before the improvement has begun to stand still in every direction, will, like an untimely interference, only aggravate the state.....'
And then in chronic diseases he states
'Before proceeding, it is important to observe, that our vital principle cannot bear well that the same unchanged dose of medicine be given even twice in succession, much less more frequently to a patient. For by this the good effect of the former dose of medicine is either neutralized in part, or new symptoms proper to the medicine, symptoms which have never before been present in the disease appear, impeding the cure. Thus even a well selected homoeopathic medicine produces ill effects and attains its purpose imperfectly or not at all. Thence come the many contradictions of homoeopathic physicians with respect to the repetition of doses.'
