How are medicines prepared?
As Hahnemann continued his experiments he found the results were even better, and with less discomfort to the patient, if he not only diluted the medicines but also shook them after each stage of dilution. This dilution in steps, with shaking between steps, is called potentising, and increases the power or potency of the medicine. There are several pharmacies in Australia and New Zealand which make and sell homeopathic medicines.
