Directions for Use
Remove the tab, turn the tube upside down, and gently pull the cap.
Twist the tube to dispense the desired number of granules into the cap, then place the granules under your tongue.
It is recommended that you do not touch the homeopathic granules or globules with your fingers.
The globules from the dose tubes are taken all at once by allowing them to dissolve slowly under the tongue. If a specific dose is unavailable, take 10 granules of the same dilution.
Do not consume astringent substances—such as coffee, tobacco, camphor, mint, or chamomile—within half an hour before taking homeopathic remedies.
Use a mint-free toothpaste (such as Homéodent Boiron, a toothpaste compatible with taking homeopathic granules).

Precautions for Use
Warning
Contains sucrose. Store homeopathic medicines away from light, heat, moisture, and any sources of fumes or fragrances.
Administering homeopathic granules to infants and children
For granules or alcohol-based drops, dissolve them in 100 ml of water. Since the granules take a long time to dissolve, you should prepare your mixture in advance.
Homeopathy and Pregnancy
Homeopathic remedies have no chemical toxicity, no contraindications, no interactions with other medications, and no adverse effects related to the amount ingested. Pregnant women can use them without any known risk to themselves or their unborn child, but it is best to seek advice.
Frequency of Homeopathic Use
For acute conditions, it is recommended to take homeopathic remedies every hour until symptoms improve. Once symptoms improve, you should space out the doses to 3 or 4 times a day, then gradually stop.
For chronic conditions, remedies in low dilutions (greater than 9CH) are taken 1 to 2 times a day, while constitutional remedies are taken once a week or even once a month. This decision is up to the homeopath.
What to Do If There Is No Improvement Within 24 Hours
Certain conditions cannot be treated with homeopathy through self-medication alone. Their severity requires medical advice, which can be provided by a homeopathic physician. This physician will determine whether your condition can be treated with homeopathy alone or whether your treatment needs to be supplemented with allopathic medicine.
