Interactions with conventional medications
Homeopathic remedies work in a different way to pharmacy medicines and interaction is not an issue.
If pain persists and other pain relief is required, give as per the directions on the bottle.
Check with your surgeon, GP or homeopath, as appropriate, if you have any questions or concerns.
Alcohol in Remedies
Much like many pharmacy medicines, alcohol is a necessary inclusion as a preservative and also as an integral part of the action of a homeopathic remedy, ie how it works.
The alcohol in our remedies is as low as permissible (10% grape alcohol, 5% brandy) and the dose (see below) is tiny.
To maintain the integrity of the product, do ensure that if the dropper touches the mouth, it is rinsed in boiling water before returning to the bottle.
If it is deemed necessary to reduce the alcohol further, you may do so as follows.
Diluting the Remedy
- Put your drops in 1/4 glass of water
- Stir vigorously with a teaspoon
- The water is now your remedy
- Give 1/2 teaspoon (0-12 months) or 1 teaspoon (over 12 months) and repeat for each dose
