Dosage Guidelines For Dental Remedies 200c and Under

HOW TO CHOOSE POTENCY:

When the treatment is prescribed on the basis of local signs and symptoms, prescribe low potencies, under 12X.

When the treatment is prescribed on the basis of a mixture of local, general, mental and emotional signs and symptoms, prescribe higher potencies, 30X – 200X.

TIMES REMEDIES SHOULD BE TAKEN:

Low potency remedies (under 12X)

• first aid every 5-30 minutes
• acute conditions every 30 minutes to hourly, decreasing to 3-4 times a day

Medium potency remedies (12X – 30c)

• one to three times a day

High potency remedies (30c – 200c)

• once a day.

**ALWAYS REDUCE FREQUENCY WITH IMPROVEMENT**

The lower the potency, the shorter its duration of action (acute conditions).

The higher the potency, the longer its duration of action (chronic conditions).
