[H] FW: Combos vs. Singles

This also happens Rosemary with the combo hay fever remedies that are on the
market in the UK

Hi, Shannon, For what it's worth (it doesn't say anything about chords), I
had an interesting experience with a combo remedy a few months back -- I
found it instructive. I was in New York, came down with a terrible cold,
analyzed the symptoms, and realized it would respond to Kali-i. I did not
have that remedy with me, and couldn't find it in Whole Foods or any place I
could identify near me. At CVS Pharmacy, where I went to get Tylenol, I
found a homeopathic combo cold remedy that when I read the label I saw
contained Kali-i. I thought, Oh, what the heck?" I got it and tried it,
and was astounded when it worked beautifully. So apparently if the remedy
you really really need is in a combo it can still act without being canceled
out by the other remedies. This makes sense in light of what I learned in
school that if you don't need a remedy it won't have an effect on you,
unless you take it to a point of proving.

It made me feel a whole lot less negative than I had, to combination
remedies.

Like I said, for what it's worth. I still find that ordinarily the right
remedy, taken singly, works much better than combinations, most of the time.


Warmly, Rosemary

I have been told -- in years long past -- that some homeopaths would make up
complexes for a patient based upon good knowledge of how those remedies were
known to interact with each other. (In most cases this appears not to be
the case, tho.)

Some people use chords regularly. I wonder if any of those people are
on here now, and if they would feel brave enough to mention it? :o)
I can't now remember who'd mentioned it -- in years long past, before civil
discussion of "disputed areas" had become to energetically rejected by
certain members.

I wonder if you are thinking of something like the Apex formulas?
Huge numbers of remedies and potencies. But they are both used and
formulated by something different from the familiar homeopathic process.
That's about all I know about that... Reading the ingredients list it
*looks* like a sort of combination homeopathic (because of some familiar
names, and also because of potency labels), but they aren't, and aren't
marketed as such.

This makes complete sense to me...

? Are you referring to potentized version of drugs, or ??
