Liquid vs. Dry Dosing

What are the advantages/ disadvantages of each? Which one is preferable? Would liquid doses tend to be repeated more? I know in chronic cases, it is typical to wait anywhere from 15-30 days before repeating if necessary with a dry dose. I assume one does not need to wait as long with the liquid dose. How long do you typically wait to asses after the a liquid dose?

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
If you haven't already done this, you should have a look at the article written by Dr. Luc Du Schepper on the 'wet dose' versus the 'dry dose'.

http://www.drluc.com/lecture-two.html

There are no advantages to the dry dose. It is perfect for storing remedies, for decades if not longer. It is not efficient for delivery to the human body though.

The pillules will cause more aggravations, which can be a serious problem especially for people needing mulitple doses. Also, the pillules cannot be altered or adjusted in terms of potency, which means that repeat dosing becomes less effective, if not completely ineffective. Very often people using pillules will notice their remedy simply stops working - this is because only when the remedy is in water, can the potency be increased. The potency must be raised with each repeat dose, until the disease is cured. Not doing this means the disease is able to resist the action of the remedy.

The reason you have to wait with dry doses is because of the aggravation. Since you can adjust the dose in liquid, you are able to give more doses more often with less problems. However, reassesment is individual. Each person will have their own schedule for repeat doses, there is no one rule you can apply to everyone. I have seen people need daily doses of 1M, and I have seen people cure on a single dose of 30c. The important thing is to carefully examine the reaction the person is having, watching Direction of Cure, before deciding whether to redose, how to adjust that dose, or if a change of potency or remedy is needed.

The wondeful thing about using remedies in water, is that you can adjust the dose in several ways, giving a lot of flexibility in dealing with individual patient reactions - number of hits of the bottle, number of drops, amount of water, number of teaspoons.

Please read my posts on dilution at...
http://www.abchomeopathy.com/forum2.php/176643/

There is no point in diluting a dilution further and to assume that it has become very safe now.

Similarly 10-20 succussions won't matter when we compare with the base to which these succussions are applied.

Dr. Mountson has expressed similar opinion in one of his posts. But his friend Joe has imparted fantastic properties to the remedy Arnica by making it's wet dose.

The more water you use to dilute, the less the aggravation.

The more you hit the bottle, the more aggravation.

These things have been clearly and consistently observed since Hahnemann observed them.

Dr. Du Schepper's work has been very thorough. Reading through it would be of benefit to any homoeopath.
