The Opposite Action Of High And Low Potencies


This Post invites homoeopaths to share knowledge and clinical experiences of remedies that showed opposite action of High and Low Potencies.  A few such examples are shared here as starters...

Here the case of digitalis is very interesting and should find great use in clinical situation:

  1. In typical Calcarea Carb children, it would cure diarrhea only in high (200, 1M) potencies but could cure constipation only in 6th potency (Source: Dr.Koppikar’s Clinical Experiences of 70 years in homoeopathy) 
  2. Podophyllum high cured diarrhea and was a fine remedy for constipation with whitish (bileless) stools in 6th potency. (Source: Dr.Koppikar’s Clinical Experiences of 70 years in homoeopathy)
  3. With Iodium 200, 1000, I have added weight to lean and even emaciated boys and girls.  And Iodium 2x, 3x are the best remedies to help reducing obesity – given 3-4 pills 3 times daily. Of course, these patients are given the usual indicated high potencies of their constitutional remedies. (Source: Dr.Koppikar’s Clinical Experiences of 70 years in homoeopathy)
  4. People having weakness, dizziness on sitting up or jaundice etc. of Digitalis have been wonderfully cured by Digitalis high, 30 or 200 when the pulse was slow, and by 3x or 3 or even 6th when the pulse rate was fast. (Source: Dr.Koppikar’s Clinical Experiences of 70 years in homoeopathy)
  5. Hepar Sulph: The higher potencies may abort suppuration, the lower promote it. If it is necessary to hasten it, give 2x. by William Boericke 
  6. Mercurius too low, will hasten suppuration instead of aborting it – E.B.Nash

Fr. Britto Joseph S.J. - Empowering Health Care

Meet my first Guru who reignited my latent passion in nature consonant medicine. Fr. M. Britto Joseph s.j. a Jesuit Priest, belonging to the Madurai Province, is credited with evangelizing and proselytizing Naturopathy and Homoeopathy in India. Affordable and safe health-care has always been a need and it still continues to be a necessity for the majority of the population (middle-class and rural) in India, a country where  major share of one’s earning is spent on housing and food, savings are meager, often liquidated by medical and hospitalization expenses.  Families often end up in huge debt.   A country that enjoys a rich heritage medicine system in the form of Ayurveda and Naturopathy is today a victim of lifestyle diseases that is only burdening the existing inadequate health-care facilities in India.   It is against this background we can come to appreciate the value of Fr. Britto’s mission. Fr. Britto has done a yeoman service through his mis...

Drug Interaction and its side effects - Is your doctor factoring drug interaction while prescribing?

In the US, 3 to 7% of all hospitalizations are due to Adverse Drug Reactions (ADR). ADRs occur during 10 to 20% of hospitalizations; about 10 to 20% of these ADRs are severe. If countries like USA which has a stringent food and drug administration get millions of patients who suffer adverse drug reaction then the scale of adverse drug reaction in a populous country like India, where controls are  lax and reporting tardy. This would be a similar story in other developing and under-developed nations. The most common categories of drugs withdrawn in the last decade ( Developed Countries) were non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (28%), anti-diabetics (14.28%), anti-obesity (14.28%), antihistamines (14.28%), gastroprokinetic drugs (7.14%), breast cancer and infertility drugs (7.14%), irritable bowel syndrome and constipation drugs (7.14%) and antibiotics (7.14%).  And it takes 3-5 years for a drug to be banned in India after it has been banned in other countries.

Cell - Energy - Cancer

This post is going to be very fascinating, discussing Cell, Energy & Cancer. According to www.thefreedictionary.com the definition of electric cell is A device, such as a battery, that is capable of changing some form of energy, such as chemical energy or radiant energy, into electricity.  And that of electric battery   - a device that produces electricity; may have several primary or secondary cells arranged in parallel or series (underlined emphasis added). This definition has direct co-relation to the physiology of all living being. We are made up of cells, with each cell undergoing a physical and chemical process that produces energy.  A collective action of the cells can be equated to electric battery.( http://goo.gl/5aF9b ) All life is energy. Every nerve impulse in your body is an electric current. Every cell in your body is a mini-battery pumping out 70-90 millivolts — when healthy. When ill our cell energy is lowered (40-50 mill...
