Answers:
Homeopathic practitioners rely on two types of reference in prescribing. The Homeopathic Materia Medicae comprise alphabetical indexes of Drug Pictures organized by remedy and describe the symptom patterns associated with individual remedies. The Homeopathic repertory consists of an index of sickness symptoms, listing all remedies associated with specific symptoms. The first such Homeopathic repertory was George Jahr's Repertory, published in 1835.
The term "homeopathy" was coined by the German physician Christian Friedrich Samuel Hahnemann (1755–1843) and first appeared in print in 1807,[2] although he began outlining his beliefs of medical similars in a series of articles and monographs in 1796.
Homeopathic remedies are extremely diluted agents. The first remedies used by homeopaths were made from substances such as arsenic that, in undiluted doses, would have produced similar symptoms in the healthy. The substances on which other, more recent, remedies are based such as lac humanum (human milk), lac delphinum (dolphin milk) and adamas (diamond), are not known to produce symptoms from the undiluted form.
