What kinds of things may interfere with the action of homeopathic remedies?
Using substances with camphor such as Tiger Balm, Noxzema, Vicks, and Carmex lip balm; using tea tree oil; sleeping all night with electric blankets, heating pads, or heated waterbeds; exposing remedies to direct sunlight or extreme heat such as a closed car on a hot summer day or to strong X-rays such as those airlines use for checked baggage; touching remedies with your hands; or undergoing dental work with drilling and chemicals may interfere with the action or potency of homeopathic remedies. Be sure to store all homeopathic remedies away from microwave ovens, computers, TVs, and other electromagnetic devices. Talk with your practitioner if any of these factors may be affecting your response to homeopathy.
