What is the correct dosage?
Frequency and duration of dosage are decided by the practitioner. In acute conditions, doses should be taken every 1/2 or 1 hour to begin with, up to a maximum of 10 doses. But as soon as there is some improvement, the interval between doses should be increased do 8 or 12 hours for 2 or 3 days at most. There is absolutely no point in continuing to take a remedy once the symptoms have started to disappear. In chronic conditions 6c remedies are usually taken 3 times a day for up to 14 days, and 30c remedies every 12 hours for a few days. In chronic conditions the stronger the mental and emotional symptoms the higher the potency and the stronger the physical symptoms the lower the potency. Remember, the effectiveness of homeopathic remedies depends on matching the symptom picture to the remedy picture as precisely as you can, and then taking the smallest possible dose for the least possible time. Once the remedy has delivered its message, your Vital Force will do the rest.
