The ABC Homeopathy Forum
Duration of a remedies effect and antidoting
I think I've read similar discussions, but can't seem to find them. I'm wondering how long a homeopathic remedy can exert its influence and possibly confuse a proper image of the case. I'm afraid that I may have given remedies without enough waiting in between many months ago or even a year ago and that theses remedies may have complicated a case. I've heard of remedies acting for years. Could a remedy at 30C given 3 times over a couple of days continue to confuse a case months or years later?I'm considering antidoting as well. Can something like Vick's vapour rub applied every day for a week or so antidote all previous remedies?
For anyone curious, the case relates to my dog's skin condition:

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
A remedy only lasts a short time - a few hours, a few days, in oversensitive people it may last a few weeks. A remedy will not be still in effect months or years later.
However, this is not to say that a remedy cannot trigger a long-lasting symptom or set of symptoms. When this happens, the person's own vital energy is responsible though, not the remedy, and you cannot antidote it. It must be cured, just like any original symptom of the patient must be cured. In fact, as per our guidelines of practice, they should be added to the 'natural' disease symptoms and form part of a new, larger picture.
Just be to be clear, antidoting only relates to a remedy recently given, very recent. After that, it is impossible to antidote and a proper analysis must be done to solve the case homoeopathically. Shortcuts will only complicate things further.
