Dr. Lippe says: ” I lived for ten years in the country, where ague prevailed, and never resorted to Quinine. I cured my cases. I have always been of the opinion that a physician who professes to be a homoeopath must cure all his cases of intermittent fever with homoeopathic potentized remedies, under the law of the similars.”
I am convinced that every case of ” congestive chill,” like Asiatic cholera, can be cured more safely and speedily by the potentized remedy than in any other way, if it can be cured at all, and the mortality under homoeopathic treatment will never approach 66 per cent, the record of the dominant school.
CLINICAL
” I have recently made several satisfactory cures with Chinas. Two or three of them with one dose each of the 200th, and as many others with the 6th. I think this is an important remedy with us, and that it succeeds better in attenuation than in the crude form. The crude drug never gave me such satisfaction. Some of the indications in a number of recent cases were clear intermissions, regular paroxysms, clean or tolerably clean tongue, and profuse sweats,” – H.V. Miller
Analysis: Regular paroxysm, clear apyrexia, anticipating from 1-3 hours, clean tongue, painful congestion of spine, thirst in all stages, profuse exhausting sweat.
As in Natrum and Arsenic the potencies will always cure when the remedy is indicated. We must not overlook the fact that it is in the psoric and tubercular patient that we find the obstinate and chronic types of fevers, and no amount of crude quinine or any other drug, will cure such cases, though it may suppress the paroxysm and irretrievably injure the patient.
