Phosphorus Homeopathic remedies are prescribed on the principal that 'like cures like', in a tiny dilution - so the indications below are what a healthy person would feel if taking Phosphorus. If your symptoms fit within the symptoms below, then Phosphorus would be a good bet. The following are the indications of Phosphorus, as it relates to generalities. Strongest indications are in bold, the next strongest are in italics, and the remaining indications are in a plain typeface. Entries on a white background are from Boericke's Materia Medica, other entries are from a reversed Kent's repertory. Please remember though, this homeopathy materia medica is provided for information only, with no guarantee of accuracy; it is not intended as a substitute for medical advice, nor as a claim for the effectiveness of Phosphorus in treating any of the symptoms below. If symptoms persist, seek professional medical advice - minor symptoms can often be a sign of a more serious underlying condition. Homeopathic remedies are very dilute, and while the homeopathic remedy may be beneficial, the raw product may be harmful.
