The ABC Homeopathy Forum
Medicine Intake
There are different food of thoughts on how to eat the homeopathic medicine.Some say it should not be diluted much while the other recommends otherwise.
Can it be cleared that how the mother tincture should be used. The mother tincture is mostly used 10-15 drops. But in how much quantity of water it needs to be clarified.
Thanks and Regards
Mian.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Mother tincture is unpotentized. Being unpotentized means there is a risk of toxicity and stronger aggravations. I do not understand why a homoeopath would use mother tinctures when our process of dilution makes the substances both more powerful and safer. Potentization was invented to give us more options for healing.
Dosage is always individualized. The sensitivity of the patient, the degree of tissue change, the amount of suppression in the case - these things would determine how careful you need to be (and therefore how diluted the medicine needs to be).
Law of the Minimum Dose should always be respected for the safety of the patient. Give the smallest amount possible to effect a change, then wait to see the outcome before redosing.

Thanks for your reply. But you failed to address the core issue. No matter potencised medicines are safer but certain medicines are required to be used in the mother tincture form to obtain best results. A perfactly example is that of Crataegus. More over once a Mother Tinct is dissolved in water it is potencies. (reaching to 1x)
I look forward to some one replying to my query.

If you are prescribing according to homoeopathic principles, then I have answered your question.
Law of the Minimum Dose, one of our most basic guidelines, needs to be respected for each patient. Give only the smallest amount possible to effect a change, then wait to observe the result.
There is no mechanical dosing or prescribing methods in homoeopathy (but many in the various 'offshoots' unfortunately).
What answer are you looking for here? You want a specific answer for every patient you ever give a mother tincture too? This defies the principle of individualization in homoeopathy, and is instead the approach that the allopaths take.
You need to test the response of the patient to whatever you give them. If they overreact then you increase the amount of water. No one amount of water would suit every patient.
Mother tincture must be succussed to become 1x. Simply diluting it does not make it a potency. It is still the mother tincture at that stage.
