• Touch as little as possible and give in a clean mouth but if you have to give in food, give in a little bread; cheese; raisin or grape

• In an emergency First Aid situation give 3 pills fairly close together and another 3, spaced out, during the first day. The next day give 5 pills spaced out evenly. The next 4 pills, then 3 pills, 2 pills, 1 pill then stop; and review. Chronic cases and conditions give more spaced out then stop; and review. Repeat again or change remedies as the picture changes, healing layer by layer.

• Hannah adds: A potency of 30c is generally recommended for treating animals. Sometimes 200c or higher may be required but I would check with a homeopath before using anything higher than 30c.
