I have a question, and it may be a larger topic so if you don't want to answer here or if the info is coming up in a future post, that's fine. I was looking into purchasing Tuberculinum from the Banerji protocol for IBS, and I noticed that at some pharmacies it was listed as a prescription only remedy. This was also true for some other remedies, like Carcinosin, Psorinum, Bacillinum, and Bowel Nosodes. Is there a reason that some remedies would be prescription only? Are these somehow more dangerous, or do they interact with other remedies, or something? I was just curious :) Thanks for your information and education!
Also, remember how incredibly dilute these nano-medicines are. They only gently stimulate the system to correct. They do not cause disease and have never killed anyone!
I'm curious which pharmacies are doing that. I have yet to see that yet with any of the places I order from. But there's been a lot of battling going on in the political sphere over homeopathy (for years). 'They' nearly killed homeopathy in the US in the earlier 1900s and would love to do it again. One of the main tactics is to make it harder to get the remedies.
To answer you, in short, the so-called nosodes are no different in terms of how we use them, risk, or anything like that. I have used them myself and regularly use with clients all of the ones you mentioned. They are excellent homeopathic medicines. The 'nosode' title only refers to what they are made from as a category (diseased tissue), versus say minerals, animals, venoms, plants, intangibles, etc. There is also a lot of talk in the homeopathy world about using nosodes for 'miasms' and other complex topics. I'm sure over time I'll write about some of this, but for most people it's just not necessary info.
It's like 'cell salts' confuse people too. They are just homeopathic medicines and can can be used in all the potencies like any other homeopathic remedy. The 'cell salts' are just a categorizing name of the 12 main salts that our bodies use (as per Schussler).
So, especially with the Banerji Protocols, we just follow them and observe. They've done all the clinical work for us (diagnosis to medicine selections).
Thanks! Yes, it does! I was looking at different pharmacies because Tubrculinum was not on Amazon or Boiron or Ollois, and I found it on Castle Remedies which is based out of Michigan. They had a BUNCH of cool remedies I had heard of but not seen anywhere, but many of them were prescription only. It just made me curious and a little aprehensive. Thanks again for the reply!
Just to add, Amazon does have tuberculinum, psorinum, carcinosin, medorrhinum etc. I see the Urenus brand right now is available (the brown tubes with white caps), which I own and works just fine. Also, if not in a rush, my favorite pharmacy is Helios from the UK. Great value and more remedies than any other company I know of.
Thanks! I had found Helios, but good to know Urenus is fine to use too. I had seen them on Amazon but wasn't sure what to look for to make sure these were ok to order. I had seen Ollois and Boiron in stores, so I knew they were legit.
Thanks so much for all your information! It's very helpful. I have almost no experience with homeopathy and I think I have experienced both a proving and an aggravation already- I must be great at choosing remedies (not really)! I wasn't 100% on what had happened, but your descriptions seem to fit my situation. I proved Sulphur after a couple of doses by developing raw skin patches on my face that resolved a day or two after I stopped the Sulphur. And I started taking Lycopodium + Arsenicum for my IBS and after a week or so had a flare up of belly pain like I hadn't had in years, since I changed my diet. It flared up the one time without any explanation and then went away. So weird! I appreciate all the education you're providing!
The good news with provings and aggravations is no harm done! Don't ever use it to judge yourself. No matter how experienced you get with homeopathy these events will still happen. It's all just feedback and information. I'll be writing much more about Sulphur in the next article on suppressions. It's an interesting one that can cause issues (exactly like you had) in some people! Just keep going and don't ever be afraid to pivot. It can sometimes take a lot of tries to hit on the right thing. If you have an IBS diagnosis, check out Irritable Bowel Syndrome pg. 90-91 of the Banerji Protocols book. (This protocol includes SIBO too.)

Thanks for the tip! I might have to shift to that one!
