But yet these corporeal actions which destroy the other medicinal disease are, at the same time characteristic medicinal symptoms, and the coryza of arsenic remains very different in many essential and, as yet, not sufficiently accurately observed circumstances from that produced by the magnet, belladonna, nux vomica, mezereum, &c.) coryza with hoarseness and sleeplessness.

Hahnemann's three major publications chart the development of homeopathy. In the Organon of Medicine, we see the fundamentals laid out. Materia Medica Pura records the exact symptoms of the remedy provings. In his book, The Chronic Diseases, Their Peculiar Nature and Their Homoeopathic Cure, he showed us how natural diseases become chronic in nature when suppressed by improper treatment.
