If, after 5 times the upper limit of the recommended interval for the evaluation of symptoms has passed, there is still no change, there is a high probability the selected remedy was inappropriate (not homeopathic) and a more suitable one should be determined. | + | - There was no significant change in the character or intensity of the symptoms after the last dose and the character of the symptoms is very acute (e.g. severe pain) or life-threatening.

| **Note to item 1:** When repeating the dose, we strive to achieve an optimal dosing with minimal or no aggravations, in other words a stability in the improvent of the disease condition. This is more easily achieved by administering the remedy in water -- the effect of the dose being regulated by changing the volume of the dose, the greater dilution with water, and adjusting the number of strokes / shakes before use. When repeating a dry dose in the same potency, there is a higher risk of **cumulative effects** of single doses of the remedy and of subsequent aggravations. | **Note to item 1:** When repeating the dose, we strive to achieve an optimal dosing with minimal or no aggravations, in other words a stability in the improvent of the disease condition.

| - | **Note to item 2:** In very acute conditions, repeated doses do not typically result in a homeopathic aggravation since the state is already aggravated almost to the maximum extent possible. Selected remedy should be repeated in order to achieve sufficient stimulation of the life force of the body. If after a reasonable period of time (5 times the upper limit of the recommended interval for evaluation of symptoms) there is no positive improvement, it is necessary to determine more suitable medicine. | + | **Note to item 2:** In very acute conditions, repeated doses do not typically result in a homeopathic aggravation since the state is already aggravated almost to the maximum extent possible.

| - | Homeopathic remedies are indicated on the basis of specific symptoms and if symptoms are not present, it is not possible (by methods of classical homeopathy) to determine a suitable remedy. Exceptions are conditions whose presence can be **assumed to occur** with certain probability, for example, various post-operative, post-traumatic, prenatal and obstetric conditions, etc., when a prophylactic use of homeopathic medicine appropriately selected can alleviate the condition or completely prevent its occurrence. Another possibility is an epidemic of a disease, when the disease image is known to a sufficient extent and therefore a suitable homeopathic remedy may be determined and recommended. | + | Homeopathic remedies are indicated on the basis of specific symptoms and if symptoms are not present, it is not possible (by methods of classical homeopathy) to determine a suitable remedy.
