The existing potencies in their dilution series 1 : 99 and 1 : 9
are “nominal” weight : weight or volume : volume ratios devoid
of a rational chemical basis. The basic principle of molar ratio
potencies is to provide each one molecule of the drug with nine
molecules of the diluent at the 1X potency, 99 molecules at the
2X potency and so on. Molar ratio potencies based on fundamental
principles of chemistry shall rectify a long-standing anomaly in
the preparation of homeopathic potencies.
