[H] Combos vs. Singles

Fran does a good job explaining this clearly on her website, http://homeopathyplus.com.au/complexes-and-how-to-use-them/

Combos can be a good way to introduce new consumers to homeopathy who may otherwise become discouraged if a single remedy is not the right simillimum for them.

I know when I had a UTI and looked at the repertory, there are so many remedies listed for those rubrics, that I found it difficult to choose the right one.
I ended up using a strong antibiotic Cipro, for a few weeks. The pain and discomfort was just too great to keep on searching.

I've seen combos which blend the same potency of various remedies, say all 30X and also combos of various potencies of the same remedy with X's and C's. I remember reading Hahnemann doing some experiment with combos and discarding the idaea, not sure if any were done with same remedy at various potencies simultaneously.
