Phosphoricum acidum Anhang 2
[Samuel Hahnemann]
(Phosphoric acid.)
(From vol. v, 2nd edit., 1826.)
(Preparation: one pound of bones calcined white and broken into small
pieces, place in a porcelain jar, and pour over them one pound of the strongest
sulphuric acid. The mixture is to be stirred with a glass rod several times
during 24 hours, then well mixed and diluted with 2 pounds of good
brandy, and the whole tied up in linen bag and pressed out between two smooth
boards loaded with weights. What remains in the bag may be again diluted
with two pounds of brandy, and the expressed fluid added to the first
quantity. The whole is to be allowed to stand for two days, so that the
cloudiness may settle down. The clear fluid is now to be decanted off,
evaporated in a porcelain dish over the fire, and melted at a red heat. The
melted phosphoric acid should be as clear as crystal, and while still warm it is
to be broken into small fragments and preserved in a wellcorked bottle, because
when exposed to the sir it soon completely deliquesces into a thickish fluid as
clear as water.)
A grain of this crystalline acid id dissolved in 100 drops of a mixture
of nine parts of water with one part of alcohol (the alcohol being added in
order to make it drop easily). The solution is succussed twice (with two
strokes of the arm). A drop of this is again succussed with 100 drops of
alcohol by means of succussion with two strokes of the arm. This is 1. And the
process is repeated up to the trillion-fold dilution (III). A sugar globule the
size of a poppy seed, and moistened with this trillion-fold dilution, is
administered for a homoeopathic dose.
The following remarkable, pure, artificial morbid symptoms produced by
phosphoric acid on the healthy body indicate of them selves the natural morbid
states in which it is specifically curative by reason of homoeopathic
similarity.
Every dose acts for more than two weeks in chronic diseases.
The over violent action of phosphoric acid is diminished by camphor.
