Homeopathic remedies come in different forms – they may be given as liquid, pills, pilules (small pills), tablets or powder.
We mainly prescribe our remedies in pilules (small pills) or liquid form (drops or spray) and these are taken orally by mouth. If given as a pilule, place in mouth and suck until it dissolves. Just like sucking a lolly! They have a slightly sweet, pleasant taste. The pilule is made from sucrose and is lactose free. For liquid remedies you can place the drops or spray directly into the mouth from the bottle.
How many pilules / drops / sprays do I take?
• 1 dose = 1-2 pilules / 1-2 drops / 1-2 sprays
Dissolve pilule / drop / spray in mouth.
Avoid food, drink (other than water) or teeth brushing at least 10-15 mins before or after taking a remedy.
How often do I take my remedy?
Follow the written dosage instructions given with your remedy from us on how often to take. If you are unsure please contact us.
Do I continue taking the previous remedies prescribed?
Stop your previous prescription and start your new one unless instructed otherwise by us. Follow the written dosage instructions given with your new prescription. If you are unsure please contact us.
Store any leftover remedies for possible future use. Remedies have many uses – for example, the remedy Arsenicum may have been prescribed for anxiety/stress for you but it is also a very useful remedy for food poisonings or tummy bugs!
