More details
The Weleda laboratory offers a range of homeopathic remedies in the form of triturations, also known as oral powders. Although less well-known than granules or drops, this dosage form offers numerous advantages, particularly for young children, infants, animals, or people with difficulty swallowing.
Triturations are made by diluting insoluble substances (usually of plant, mineral, or animal origin) in a powdered lactose base, ensuring an even distribution of the active ingredient. They are manufactured according to traditional homeopathic principles, including potentization and succussion.
The powder form is particularly recommended for babies under one year of age, as it is easy to administer and better tolerated than granules. It can be given:
This method is also suitable for pets and can even be used in homeopathic gardening to treat certain weakened plants, according to veterinary or specialized recommendations.
Weleda triturations are administered according to simple dosages: the general rule is to take 1 to 2 measuring spoons per dose, repeated as often as prescribed by a doctor or homeopathic pharmacist.
Unlike drops, whose dosage may depend on body weight, triturations—like granules—are prescribed uniformly, regardless of the patient’s age or weight. This makes them easy to incorporate into a treatment routine, even for pediatric care.
Although they use the same homeopathic strains, triturations and granules are not directly equivalent, as their manufacturing processes differ:
As a general guideline, a common prescription for Calcarea Compound in granule form is 5 granules twice a day, whereas for the trituration, it is customary to recommend 1 scoop three times a day. This dosage may vary depending on the condition, the duration of treatment, and the patient’s response.
