Allopathic treatment is said to be experimental, while Homeopathic
treatment is based on certainty, resulting from experience. The
allopathist tries various drugs, and if one medicine or one
combination of drugs fails, tries another; but the homoeopathist
administers only such medicaments as may be indicated by the symptoms
of the patient. If two drugs are given, as is frequently, and perhaps
generally, the case, it is because the symptoms exhibited are of such
a character that they cannot be produced in a healthy person by the
action of one and the same drug, and, consequently cannot be
counteracted or neutralized by the action of a single drug.
