Please take 3 (three) doses of Sepia 30c at a gap of 4 hours only for one day. Do not take any other remedy or herbs on the next 15 days. Do not repeat it on the next 15 days.

One dose means:

Get a 500ml bottle of distilled Water from the nearest supermarket. Pour out about 250 ml of water from the bottle to leave some airspace. Insert 1 pills (If the remedy is in pills form) or Insert 1 drop (If the remedy is in liquid dilution form) of the remedy into the bottle and shake the bottle hard 15 times in a row (15 strokes of equal strength). Shaking the bottle hard is homeopathic succession which is done to enhance the medicinal power of the remedy.

Please take only 2 drops of the reconstituted dilution of 250 ml using a disposable dropper every time at a gap of 4 hours.

Please shake the bottle hard 15 times in a row (15 strokes of equal strength) every time before taking 2 drops from this bottle using a disposable dropper which can be used as a dose.

Please report back after 15 day. I look forward to your response.

Restrictions:

1/. Nothing should enter the mouth for 1 hour prior to, or after taking the remedy.
2/. If your remedy came in pills form do not touch the pills with your hands, tip them into the cap of the container they came in and then into the water.
3/. Avoid coffee, tea (including green), and other sources of caffeine such as some fizzy drinks and large amounts of chocolate, except where this would cause a drastic change in consumption
4/. Avoid wearing perfume or exposure to anything with a strong smell on the day and 3 days following the remedy administration. This includes any and all essential oils, and incense.
5/. Avoid the consumption of excessively spicy foods.
6/. The use of medicinal herbs, either as 'teas' or supplements should be avoided during Homoeopathic treatment, as should the use of over the counter medication, unless this has been recommended by your Doctor.

Best wishes,

She got tested this medicine from some lab, and came to know that the medicine was made up of some herbs only but quite a few times she enquired from the concerbed doctor about the contents to which he answered that ill post you the contents but never posted that.
On bottle nothing is mentioned anything about the contents.

I will keep you posted with the further results.
Pls suggest how should she proceed further.
Thanks
 
HoneyKhanna last decade
Dear Honey,

She must stop Hydrabadi medicine if she wants to cure herself. How long she can take it? Even we don’t know what it is? How can we trust it? I can’t approve it because I don’t know what it is and how it works.

On asking doctor about the contents of the medicine, only information she disclosed was that the medicine contained many herbs.

> This is not science. This is madness. I give some examples;

Whenever a doctor prescribe a medicine suppose Cefixime Trihydrate USP single dose of 200 mg; we know what it is, how can we make Cefixime on our laboratory, how it works on human body and what is the possible reaction a patient can face after taking it.

On the other hand when we use a homeo remedy suppose Sulphur, we know the same. For an example when I suggest you Nat. Mur 200c, I know why I choose it. I have an idea that how Nat. Mur. work on your body and how long it can help you. I know how can we make it and I can also imagine how your body possibly react after using it.

But how do we know what is the benefit and disadvantages of this Hydrabadi medicine which is made by mixed herbs?

Please tell her to take this remedy as suggested below and keep patience.

Kali Mur 12x (2 Tab 1 hour before breakfast, dissolve it into 10 ml hot water, sip up slowly) for next 15 days.

Please report back after 15 days.
