It has been urged against the homoeopathic treatment of tumours that, as the remedies used have (as a rule) never caused tumours or anything like them, and, more over, are in all probability quite incapable of doing so, it must follow that there can be no real homoeo-therapeutics of tumours. This little volume is a first part of my practical answer to this objection. It is brought out by itself for the reason already stated in my preface. I hope in a later publication to set forth in a clearer light my reasons for giving the remedies which I have found of greatest use in the treatment of tumours, some of which I have herein already referred to.
What I aim at in this volume is to prove that tumours can be truly and genuinely cured by medicines given by the mouth; and if I have proved that, then I have attained my object.
NEVERTHELESS, IN ORDER TO AID any younger practitioners in attempting the internal treatment of tumours, i.e. by remedies, I will just add a list of a few of the most useful medicines for this purpose, giving them alphabetically, with a practical note or two for the use of the uninitiated. For further information, see Hughes Pharmacodynamics, last edition, and back numbers of the British Journal of Homoeopathy, of the Monthly Homoeopathic Review, and of the Homoeopathic world.
