Dose-response relationship in homoeopathy: Minimum dose and remedy reaction
Abstract
The principle of the minimum dose is a cornerstone of homoeopathic therapeutics, ensuring gentle, rapid, and permanent cure without unnecessary medicinal disturbance. Closely linked to this principle is the concept of remedy reaction, which reflects the organism’s vital response to the administered medicine. This article explores the philosophical foundations, aphoristic references, types of remedy reactions, and their clinical interpretation, emphasizing how correct dosing influences the quality and direction of cure.
