Do homeopathic pathogenetic trials generate recognisable and reproducible symptom pictures?: Results from a pilot pathogenetic trial of Ozone 30c.

CONCLUSION: The results show that practising homeopaths may be able to correctly identify a homeopathic medicine from the set of symptoms generated during an HPT. This suggests that such symptom pictures generated by taking an ultramolecular homeopathic medicine are recognisable and specific to the substance taken. Since identification of the remedy was based on past HPT information held in the materia medica, this demonstrates that HPT-generated symptom pictures are reproducible, thus validating the HPT methodology. These promising preliminary findings warrant replication; possible improvements to the trial design to be incorporated in future studies were identified. PMID: 24685415 [PubMed - in process]
