Guest guest Posted June 26, 2008 Report Share Posted June 26, 2008 All - I have read (and printed out) the instructions on adminstering homeo. remedies. But I just want to make sure I am understanding them correctly. I am using them mostly with my children two of which are older - 6 & 7 and now we have a baby, 10 mos. For the baby, I've been taking one pillule, crushing it in a little water, letting it melt all the way, then giving it to her via syringe. Is this effective? Also, can I do this with the older boys, or should I do as Sherri's notes say and dissolve one pillule in 6oz of water and give one tsp at a time? Any advice would be great!! thanks!

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 Hi Elli and group, You can either just put a dry remedy pellet on or under the tongue, allowing it to dissolve, or put it in water as you've heard. The water method would work best for your baby and for animals. It is your choice; some homeopaths prefer dry, some in liquid. It is up to you.

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 Thank you Sherri, and everyone else that responded. So I'm reading that I'm ok administering the way I have been? Again, I am letting one pellet dissolve (with crushing) in only about a tablespoon of water, and then giving the entire amount to the kids - that will work fine? Elli PS - I had also given just the pellets and think that for us, the water method does work better. > > Hi Elli and group, > > You can either just put a dry remedy pellet on or under the tongue, allowing it to dissolve, or put it in water as you've heard.

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 Sheri - so I would follow Hahnemann's method with everyone, including the baby, but in her case, could I use a syringe to administer the water in case the spoon didn't work? > > > > > > Hi Elli and group, > > > > > > You can either just put a dry remedy pellet on or under the > >tongue, allowing it to dissolve, or put it in water as you've > >heard.

Yes, that would work. It is the putting of the remedy in water as described and the succussions of 2nd and further doses that is important. And then however you get it from the bottle into the baby is up to you. Syringe or eye dropper........or spoon.......... whatever works Sheri > > > > > > > > > Hi Elli and group, > > > > > > > > You can either just put a dry remedy pellet on or under >the > > >tongue, allowing it to dissolve, or put it in water as you've > > >heard.

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 Why only one pellet? My holistic dr said to give 3.

Guest guest Posted June 27, 2008 Report Share Posted June 27, 2008 I'm not completely up to speed on homeopathics yet; I'm sure Sheri has the *real* answer, but my speculation on this is that homeopathy is more about potency than dosage... the potency is there in one pellet just as it's there in three. That's why you can water down the same " dose " of one pellet more than once and still raise the potency with the shaking of the water. Am I on the right track, Sheri? I'm currently taking one of Sheri's vaccine courses; I'll be taking the homeopathy course next, because I want to know all this stuff!

Guest guest Posted June 29, 2008 Report Share Posted June 29, 2008 Why 3? Some 1 or 2 in case 1 doesn't have the remedy coating it. Maybe some say 3 for that reason Probably doesn't matter so much if treating minor acutes or first aid but with treating chronic situations that is more of a dose than needed. And why waste pillules - you only need 1 and 3 could be 3 times what you need in chronic and makes the dose higher. Sheri ---- daniellehunt@... wrote: > Why only one pellet?

In a way - but besides potency we look at dose and the number of pellets is part of the dose - same is whether you use the remedy diluted in 4 oz instead of 8 oz in chronic situations When someone is very sensitive we often start with 8 oz bottle of water with 1 pellet in it and then give 1 tsp from that in a 4 oz cup of water and then 1 teaspoon from that (or many other variations). This is what dose is about. Same if for acutes you give 3 pellets it is 3 times the dose. Not 3 times the potency > > I'm currently taking one of Sheri's vaccine courses; I'll be taking > the homeopathy course next, because I want to know all this stuff! > ;-) Sheri Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
