There is no concrete information to tell how homeopathy works. Many theories based on sub atomic vibration, the memory of water, etc try to explain the procedure, yet merely remain as theories. Research on this tries to prove or disprove these theories which can be a good thing.
Conclusions made from the research really prove that the particular theory of how the homeopathy might work is incorrect, though it does not prove or disprove homeopathy at all. If you are on medication, you would be advised to consult your doctor prior to stopping the intake of the prescribed medicine.
The potency to be taken depends on the sensitivity of the patient and the exact remedy that is being taken. As a general rule homeopaths administer chronic illness (which has been in the system for a long while) with high numbers like 30C - 200C. Acute illnesses (diseases that are relatively new) are treated with low numbers like 6C.
It is advised that Homeopathic medicine be taken on a clean pallet. While undergoing treatment, you should avoid strong flavors like mint (including toothpaste), coffee or camphor. The medicine, normally taken as pills, is placed under the tongue. Pills are stopped once the symptoms disappear. If the problem persists, you should consult your doctor immediately.
