Making a Prescription: Relationship Between the Polychrest Remedies and the Anti-Miasmatics

What is the difference between a polychrest remedy and an anti-miasmatic? We will discuss the most used polychrests, and their relationship to anti-psoric remedies as well as the more broadly-termed anti-miasmatic remedies. We will explore the often-confusing overlap between these terms, and the use of these remedies for acute versus chronic prescribing. Flowcharts will help us visualize the path to chronic prescribing, sequential prescribing, and determining the proper potency for the treatment of chronic disease.
