They are considered the same in our materia medicas, however, they are actually slightly different substances.

Merc sol is actually a combination of mercury, ammonium and nitrate. Hahnemann created this substance as he did with Causticum. Merc viv is the pure metal of mercury. Jan Scholten believes there are subtle differences between the two, caused by the extra elements in Merc sol.

The problem is that in our materia medica the symptoms are mixed up - but hopefully your practitioner will understand the differences well enough to choose the one that suits you best.
