    Area of Science:

    • Homeopathic Medicine
    • History of Medicine

    Background:

    • Analysis of Samuel Hahnemann's French medical diaries (1838-1843).
    • Focus on 681 prescriptions of Q-potencies, aligning with the 6th edition of the Organon.
    • Corresponds to Hahnemann's reported 4-5 years of experience with his "dynamisation method".

    Discussion:

    • Sulphur was the most frequently prescribed substance, used three times more than all other medicines combined.
    • Calcarea was the second most prescribed substance.
    • No Q-potencies higher than Q8 were identified.

    Key Insights:

    • Hahnemann's "modified, new perfected method" involved Q-potencies up to Q8.
    • Sulphur and Calcarea were central to his practice during this period.
    • The majority of Q-potency prescriptions are documented in unpublished case-books 13 and 14.

    Outlook:

    • Further research into unpublished case-books may reveal more about Hahnemann's Q-potency prescribing habits.
    • Understanding historical prescribing patterns can inform contemporary homeopathic practice.
    • This study provides valuable data on the early application of Q-potencies in homeopathy.
