What does "10X" mean in a homeopathic medicine? Is that 10 ^-10 th ??!
Question: 10X means D2
(e.g. Arnica 10 times shaken gives Arnica D2)
D = Dezimalpotenzen, im Verh?ltnis 1:10
C= Centesimalpotenzen, im Verh?ltnis 1:100
LM = Q = Quinquagesimillesima Potenzen: im Verh?ltnis 1:50 000.
MM is for the "cracks"
;-)

Ten times as in "ten times stronger than ....". Usually refers to the strength of a remedy or herb when taken in liquid versus other form.
The X, C and M designation measure the amount of dilution from the mother tincture.
Here is an equation to calculate the dilution of DECIMAL potency.
Nx = 10 to the -nth power.
So the dilution from the mother tincture would be 10x = to the 10th power.
It simply means that what you have is a bottle of salt water with an eyedropper. Pure placebo.
It's a marketing gimmick to make you think it's strong junk.
