Do Homoeopathists accept this theory ? They do not. The only law of cure known to Homoeopathy is Similia Similibus Curantur . Clinically, however, these remedies have been found most valuable additions to our Materia Medica, and thorough proving of them is necessary. Give the general action of Ferrum phosphoricum.
