Introduction by Dr. Sarkar

Nowadays in homoeopathic practice, with newer approaches addressing thematic representations of remedies and with newer provings emerging, practitioners have forgotten the fundamental and basic principles of homoeopathy and have largely shifted away from the practice of traditional and foundational homoeopathy.

My approach to homoeopathy can be summed up in one word, simple. Most things in life are simple and should be kept simple, and homoeopathic practice is not an exception to this tenet. To be a fine homoeopath, one does not need to be intelligent, wealthy or have good contacts. A fine homoeopath must be honest, dedicated, and most importantly, have a large amount of courage to survive against all odds. My approach is overall very simple – the aim is to find out the most characteristic symptoms in the case and prescribe on these very symptoms. These characteristic symptoms can come in the form of keynote(s), rubrics,  themes,  pathologies,  or  even  a  sensation.  When  this  characteristic symptom is established and is sure, the remedy is prescribed based on this.

This approach is backed by impressive clinical results and a growing acceptance of homoeopathic practitioners and students all across India. The goal is to simply share and spread this knowledge of homoeopathic medicine to my colleagues in India and all over the world in order to facilitate more success in homoeopathic practice.

I should also mention that my experience and practice has been mainly and hugely influenced by Dr. Burnett. I have read and memorized all of his material, and the results have been fruitful. His work has helped me tremendously in my own clinical practice. Other masters, including Pulford, M.L. Tyler, Allen, Boericke, Boger, P. Sankaran, Hering, Nash, Knerr, Bernoville, Blackie, Borland, N.M. Choudhuri, John Henry Clarke, Farrington, Lippe and Matthew Woods have influenced my clinical practice greatly as well. Also, my in-depth reading of Allopathic Pharmacopeia has contributed to my vast knowledge which has definitely helped me to become a well-versed practitioner.

Dr. Rajan Sankaran spent an entire day with me in Thakurnagar, West Bengal, and witnessed many cases. He told me that the new information and insight to homoeopathic medicines he gathered during this time was invaluable and was deemed too important to neglect.

The  following  handbook  aims  to  give  insights,  clinical  tips  and  approaches to use in homoeopathic practice, in addition to amassing key information on various remedies from our materia medica that are favorites utilized by myself, Dr. Sunirmal Sarkar.

Author’s Note

Many of my students and a lot of homoeopaths feel that what I do is prescribe specific remedies. There is nothing termed as homoeopathic specific remedies.

One of my students recently asked about the last cardiac patient which I saw, who  got  much  better  using  the  remedy  Crataegus.  They  then  asked  if  this remedy  is  specific  for  heart  complaints.  This  is  where  we  make  maximum mistakes.  Crataegus  can  only  be  prescribed  if  there  are  cardiac  symptoms, with a concomitant symptom of insomnia, or any other concomitant symptom. Without this characteristic concomitant, Crataegus is not going to alleviate the patient’s suffering.

There can be many examples of this. We can look at the remedy Hydrastis. I use this remedy as an intercurrent in many cancer patients. What people miss however, is that when these cancer patients have a concomitant symptom of increased hunger, this is when the remedy Hydrastis will help.

Another word about the role of other remedies, like sarcodes, allopathic drugs, Indian drugs, biochemical drugs, organ-specific drugs. Many of these types of remedies are needed in pathological cases. Using one remedy and one dose in pathological cases, has not proven to be efficacious in my clinical practice.

What is greatly needed for prescription is the current symptom totality. I look at the current symptom totality, see which remedy is the closest to this totality, and I prescribe it. I also take into account the pathogenesis of the remedy and the patient.

For me, the first prescription is just the beginning. Often, in pathological cases, the patient requires a change in the remedy. In fact, this change can happen as often as every 1 or 2 months, because disease patterns are rapidly changing.

Most  diseases  today  are  complicated  by  allopathic  medicines,  hormonal dysfunctions, addictions like alcohol and tobacco, and past history of illnesses. All of these factors must be taken into account when prescribing.

My  earnest  appeal  to  the  younger  generation  who  practice  homeopathic medicine,  is  to  try  and  learn  the  materia  medica  and  repertory  from  their heart. More importantly, apply it and have the guts and confidence to prescribe homoeopathic medicines even in pathological cases.

Foreword

It has been my good fortune to come in contact with Dr. Sunirmal Sarkar, as I had the pleasure of visiting his clinic in a remote village in Bengal, where he sees about 100 patients a day.

Many of these cases that I saw were of difficult pathologies, and Dr. Sarkar had a very short time period available to him for case-taking.

Dr. Sarkar has evolved into practising a unique method. He uses every possible approach within the spectrum of homoeopathy and prescribes his remedies.

He uses mental symptoms, organ based remedies, Indian drugs and a variety of  potentized  allopathic  drugs.  Depending  on  what  he  sees  prominently  in the given case, he chooses his approach. He has a phenomenal knowledge of repertory and materia medica, in addition to a mind with openness to any and every approach possible.

Dr. Sarkar has a very deep and infectious passion for homoeopathy. His keen interest and enthusiasm inspired us to invite him to the other song – International 

Academy  of  Advanced  Homoeopathy  to  teach  a  course  of  over  six  months duration. During this course, students see live cases of Dr. Sarkar and observe the way he practises.

I took the liberty of trying to understand for myself the various approaches that he uses, since he did not have the time to explain it in-depth.

With Dr. Sarkar’s seal of approval and the help of Dr. Gaurang Gaikwad who sat with Dr. Sunirmal Sarkar for six months, various approach were documented, along with some added examples to explain the approach used by Dr. Sarkar in this short handbook.

Manish Yadav and Sadaf Ulde were the two main people who worked on the section of the toxicological materia medica.

Armeen Jasavala spent considerable amount of time to bring together the scattered notes of Dr. Sarkar and successfully made it into a clear and comprehensive format for the readers.

This handbook is a very raw edition. It is only an overview, as we hope to bring out more detailed books, with more information and supporting cases.

Many of his ideas have already been very useful in my practice and have enabled me to see more clearly the wide spectrum of homoeopathy, and I hope it will do the same for you.

Dr. Sarkar’s Clinical Approaches (#1-18)

Clinical Approach #1 – Modalities

When looking at the main complaint, it is important to note the exact modalities of  that  complaint,  Dr.  Sarkar  looks  at  the  time  modality,  life  situations,  and life circumstances. The complaint must be understood with relation to the time period in the patient’s life.

For example: If we look at Aurum metallicum, we see the symptom foul breath in girls at puberty.

Clinical Approach #2 – Combination of Organs

When a patient has a complaint that has a combination of 2 or more organs involved (ex. Lungs and liver, or heart and liver), remember this combination is itself too peculiar. Remedies which have this exact combination of organs must be investigated and studied further.

For example: If we look at Digitalis, we see both the lungs and heart are affected.

Clinical Approach #3 – Observations

Keen observation skills are a critical key to successful homoeopathic practice. Such obvious and clear clinical observations can help understand who the patient is as well.

For  example:  The  symptom  of  a  bluish  line  on  the  gums,  is  observable  in patients who need heavy metals (Aurum metallicum, Bismuth, Argentums and Arsenicum album).

Clinical Approach #4 – Origin, Duration, Progress

When approaching a case, the chronology of the pathology is very important. The origin, duration and progress are also factors one should consider.

For example: Hematuria or nephritis symptoms after malaria is one of the major indications for Eucalyptus.

Clinical Approach #5 – Concomitants

One of the main investigative techniques that Dr. Sarkar uses in his approach is to find a concomitant symptom to the pathology. Boericke Repertory is the most useful repertory with the clinical indications for these kind of concomitants. For example: Asthma can present in many ways and is very individualistic. For asthma along with nightly pain in urination, think of Solidago. If the patient has asthma with sleeplessness, the remedy of choice should be Tela aranea. Asthma with joint pains and a build-up of uric acid, requires the remedy Viscum album.

Clinical Approach #6 – Allopathic Understanding and Drug Side Effects

One  major  facet  in  clinical  practice,  is  to  understand  allopathically  what  is happening with each patient. As homoeopathic doctors, we must have a clear understanding of the allopathic medicines that were given to the patient along with the side effects of each respective drug.

For example: In cases requiring the remedy Salicylic acid, there should be a history of pyrexia followed by allopathic medicines (Crocin/paracetamol) taken. Salicyclic acid is the source of paracetamol.

Clinical Approach #7 – Relation to Known Remedies

Many times, smaller remedies are forgotten in the vast amount of polychrest remedies. In clinical practice, one must study and comprehend homoeopathic remedies which are similar, or are complementary to these main remedies.

For example: The remedy Gallic acid has Stramonium-like fears + Tuberculinum- like violence + hemorrhages and cough like Phosphorus.

Clinical Approach #8 – Two Pathologies

When there is a combination of two or more pathologies which have nothing in common, this can be taken as the peculiar characteristic of the case and can lead us to the appropriate homoeopathic remedy.

For example: Conium has both tumors + paralysis. Clinical Approach #9 – Small Remedy, Big Symptom

If we look at the smaller, more peculiar remedies, we find that even this small remedy has a big symptom, and this symptom is the strongest for any remedy in the materia medica.

For example: Constriction of chest + high blood pressure are the main keynotes of the remedy Adrenalin.

Clinical Approach #10 – Organ-Specific Remedies

Organ-specific remedies are self explanatory – the patient is prescribed a remedy based on the organ affected in the respective pathology.

For example: Ferrum iodatum has main action on the glands.

Dr. Sarkar’s Clinical Approaches (#1-18)  15

Clinical Approach #11 – Remedies Made from the Same Organ

There are a few remedies that are made out of the organ itself, and they are very useful in homoeopathic practice.

For example: Giving Retina 200, for a patient with retinitis pigmentosa.

Clinical Approach #12 – Remedies Related to Hormones (Sarcodes)

If the symptoms of the patient show an excess and/or deficiency of specific hormones, we can use this to proceed with the case.

For  example:  In  extreme  cases  of  calculi  and  calcification  of  glands, Parathyroidinum 1M is often prescribed. The pathological effect of the illness is covered by the remedy as well.

Clinical  Approach  #13  –  Indian  Drugs  with  Relation  to  Homoeopathic Remedies

Indian remedies are used often in ayurvedic pharmacopeia with good results. They are often to be remembered with the other homoeopathic remedies, and can be used in comparison.

For example: Azadirachta indica is known as the Indian Lycopodium and its common name is Neem.

Clinical Approach #14 – Bach Flower Relation to Homoeopathic Remedies

Bach flower remedies are very useful in homoeopathic practice – we can use them in potentized form as well.

For example: Agrimony is comparative to remedies like Ignatia, they like to keep the grief inside.

Clinical Approach #15 – Children’s Types

There are some remedies which are used more often in clinical practice for children, which may not be used traditionally (ex. Torula cervisiae or TMV).

For example: Torula is a remedy for children that are like Thuja.

Clinical Approach #16 – Other Nosodes and Bowel Nosodes

The value of nosodes in clinical practice is great. They can be used intercurrently or even constitutionally.

For example: The manifestation of Candida in humans includes women with vaginitis, babies with diaper rash, or patients with oral thrush. It has great use in immuno-compromised patients.

Clinical Approach #17 – Allopathic Drugs and Toxicology

This is just the beginning of a revolutionary approach in homoeopathy. I am always trying to think of different ways to heal the suffering and as there are a lot of failures in cancer cases, this made me think out of the box. This approach cannot be used solely, but it has to be used along with other approaches, or it can be used through an intercurrent approach.

For  example:  Fluorouracil  is  a  common  chemotherapy  drug,  and  when potentized, has a Lycopodium-like constitution + indications of cancer of the breast, colon, rectum, cervix, ovary or liver.

Clinical Approach #18 – Addictions and Layers

In today’s world, there are many people who have a past history of addictions, in addition to newly developed sensitivities to certain food items which have great relevance in the development of current pathologies.

For example: The Tabacum patient has a history of tobacco addiction and cardiac issues, such as blood pressure rising suddenly.

• MODALITIES –

In cases where Dr. Sarkar cannot directly find a remedy for the patient, he looks intently at the Modalities. When looking at the main complaint, it is important to note the exact modalities of that complaint. Dr. Sarkar looks at the time modality, life situations, and life circumstances. The complaint must be understood in relation to the time period in the patient’s life.

For example, if we look at a case of a young girl who has a foul smelling breath, this makes the search for a remedy much easier. Dr. Sarkar sees the time period of the girl’s life, and associates that with the symptom. Then, he tries to confirm whether that symptom is covered by the remedy chosen for the patient.

When we look at the symptom of foul breath on its own, we can see more than 300 remedies:

If we look at Aurum metallicum, from Allen’s Keynotes, we see the symptom:

• Foul breath; in girls at puberty

China officinalis

Keynotes:

One of the rare clinical indications for China officinalis is that children snore, and the intensity is high. Even in their fevers, it’s a high intensity.

• Drowsiness.  Unrefreshing  or  constant  stupor.  Wakens  early.  Protracted sleeplessness. Anxious, frightful dreams with confused consciousness on waking, so that the dream cannot be rid of and fear of dream remains. Snoring, especially with children.

Crataegus

Keynotes:

Crataegus  is  the  only  remedy  in  our  materia  medica  which  has  diabetes  in children. It is also a well known remedy for heart conditions.

• COMBINATION OF ORGANS –

When a patient has a complaint(s) that has a combination of 2 or more organs involved (ex. Lungs and liver, or heart and liver), this combination is too peculiar. Remedies which have this exact combination of organs must be investigated and studied further.

Cimicifuga

Keynotes:

Utero-rheumatic diathesis is the main indication to give the remedy Cimicifuga. In cases where the uterus and joints are affected together, we should think of this remedy. Irregular, changeful or alternating symptom groups, uterorheumatic (ddx. Caul.).

Digitalis

Keynotes:

When the liver and heart are both affected, a strong remedy to consider would be Digitalis. Also, when there is a past history of any fever or infectious disease followed  by  cardiac  or  renal  complaints  or  both  together,  especially  with dropsy, is a strong indication for Digitalis. This remedy is used for dropsy after scarlatina.

Ephedra vulgaris

Keynotes:

This is one of the rarer remedies used in clinical practice. It is often used in thyroid disorders with cardiac complaints, like high blood pressure. Used in exopthalmic goitre, with tumultuous action of the heart.

Indigo

Keynotes:

Indigo is a dye remedy. The main sphere of action that is affected is the sensorium (causing mental depression) and there are lots of spasmodic affections. There is epilepsy with great sadness.

• OBSERVATIONS –

Keen observation skills are a critical key to successful homoeopathic practice. Very obvious physical observations, for example, the serrated teeth of Medorrhinum, the shiny nose of Phosphorus, and the hairy back of Tuberculinum are clear clinical observations and can help understand who the patient is as well.

The following are physical symptoms and clinical observations which can be converted into rubrics that are often seen in clinical practice:

1. Serrated teeth

Teeth; serrated (7) : Bac., Lach., Med., Plb., Staph., Syph., Tub.

1. Bluish line on gums

This symptom in itself is rare, but when the symptom appears along with constipation, it becomes a symptom complex for a neurological disease. This line on the gums is observed in patients who need heavy metals like Aurum  metallicum,  Bismuth,  the  Argentums,  and  Arsenicum  album.  We even see this bluish line in comatose patients.

Mouth; bluish; gums; line on margin, lead-line (10) : Arg-n., Bism., Carb-v., Merc., Merc-n., Nat-m., Nux-v., Plb., Plut-n., Thal-s.

1. Yellow teeth

When this symptom is clearly indicated, Lycopodium and Thuja are the main remedies to be thought of Bacillinum is also a remedy to consider.

Teeth; yellow (20) : All-c., Ars., Asc-t., Bell., Bry., Cadm., Iod., Kali-c., Kreos., Lyc., Med., Merc., Nit-ac., Ph-ac., Plb., Sil., Sul-ac., Syph., Thea., Thuj.

1. Large lips

Bacillinum is the main remedy to be thought of when we observe large lips in patients.

Face; large; lips (2) : Bac., Bufo

• ORIGIN, DURATION, PROGRESS –

When approaching a case, the chronology of the pathology is very important. The origin, duration and progress are also factors that one should consider.

How did the pathology progress? How did it proceed from one pathology to the next? What were the symptoms during that time? Which organs were affected? What was the type of pathology? All these questions can be one of the major factors on which a remedy is prescribed.

Carbo vegetabilis

Keynotes:

Carbo vegetabilis is especially known for ear pathologies after skin disease. Also, this remedy is well indicated in rubrics like never well since typhoid, measles, pertussis or even any infectious disease. This remedy is indicated in persons who have never fully recovered from the exhausting effects of some previous illness. There is asthma which dates back to having measles or pertussis of children. There in indigestion from drunken debauchery. Finally, there are bad effects of a long time ago, and this patient would never have been well since the effects of typhoid (Psor).

Carcinosinum

Keynotes:

No history of illness during childhood or many infections one after the other is one of the strong clinical indications of Carcinosinum.

Eucalyptus

Keynotes:

Hematuria or nephritis symptoms after malaria (which is rampant in Kolkata), is one of the major indications for Eucalyptus. The mind symptoms are the very opposite of China officinalis. The mind symptoms of this remedy would be dull, slow, low concentration, just like Gelsemium.

• CONCOMITANTS –

One of the main investigative techniques that Dr. Sarkar uses in his approach is to find a concomitant symptom to the pathology.

Boericke Repertory is the most useful repertory with the clinical indications for these kind of concomitants.

Asthma

Asthma can present in many ways and is very individualistic. For asthma along with nightly pain in urination, think of Solidago. If the patient has asthma with sleeplessness, the remedy of choice should be Tela aranea. Asthma with joint pains and a build-up of uric acid, requires the remedy Viscum album.

Back Pain

The  following  list  are  concomitants  of  back  pain  along  with  the  respective remedies:

• Alternating with headache = Aloe, Brom, Melilotus
• During stool = Phos, Podo
• Bending backward < = Calc, Calc phos, Chel, Cimic
• Bending forward < = Pic acid
• Coition after = Cannabis indica, Nitric acid, Sabadilla
• When coughing = Bell, Bry, Acon, Ammonium carb, Calc, Caps, Kali bi, Merc, Nitric acid, Sep
• Fasting when = Kali nit
• Emission after = Staphysagria
• Eructation > = Sepia
• Eating > = Kali nit
• Pain in back, after injury = Con, Kali carb, Nat sulph, Thuja

• ALLOPATHIC UNDERSTANDING and  DRUG SIDE EFFECTS –

One  major  facet  in  clinical  practice,  is  to  understand  allopathically  what  is happening with each patient. As a homoeopathic doctor, we must have a clear understanding of the allopathic medicines that were given to the patient along with the side effects of each respective drug.

This is another way to approach a case, where we treat layer by layer. In any case where the patient is heavily allopathically medicated, we can treat the side effects with great success.

The  following  remedies  are  clinical  gems  and  are  very  useful  in  clinical practice.

Aristolochia clematitis

Keynotes:

Aristolochia clematitis is a valuable remedy considering at this present time there are many medicines which affect the hormonal systems. The numerous different contraceptive medications are just one example market.

When there is a past history of the use of contraceptive pills, the main remedy that  can  be  useful  is  Aristolochia  clematitis.  This  remedy  is  a  mixture  of Pulsatilla + Sepia + Arnica.

Natrum salicyclic acid

Keynotes:

With the history of fevers, ingestion of many allopathic medicines, like Crocin (The Indian brand of paracetamol), and when a Gelsemium-like state comes on in the form of dullness and/or listlessness with thirst, Natrum salicyclic acid is the main remedy for it. There is mainly analgesic action and anti pyretic action. This is the best remedy for the prostrating after-effects of influenza.

• RELATION TO KNOWN REMEDIES –

Many times, smaller remedies are forgotten in the vast amount of polychrest remedies. In clinical practice, one must study and comprehend homoeopathic remedies which are similar, or are complimentary to these main remedies.

1. When the remedy Thuja is used in cancer cases, also think of the remedy Taxus as complimentary treatment. Another keynote is noises, rumbling in the abdomen while fasting. There is a ravenous appetite, 2 hours after eating.
2. The homoeopathic remedy Clematis has characteristic Pulsatilla-like mind symptoms along with urinary complaints. A clinical keynote is commencing stricture.
3. The remedy Gallic acid has Stramonium-like fears + Tuberculinum-like violence + hemorrhages and cough like Phosphorus. In this patient, there is wild delirium at night, very restless, jumps out of bed and sweats. The patient is afraid to be alone, is rude and abuses everyone.
4. Alumen  as  a  homoeopathic  remedy  is  used  when  the  patient  has  deep pathology (like cancer and/orinduration or paralysis). Mentally-emotionally, they  have  Alumina  and  Natrum  muriaticum-like  depression.  There  is paralytic weakness, induration, dryness, constriction, especially adapted to old people. This remedy causes scirrhus of the tongue.
5. Angustura  vera  has  a  Nux  vomica-like  mind  and  Ruta-like  physical symptoms.
6. The homoeopathic remedy Cenchris contortix can be used clinically in patients who are having respiratory distress. This patient has the restlessness, thirst, fears and inability to lie down of Arsenicum album, but has Lachesis- like mental qualities, and the important modality of tightness aggravates.
7. Sanicula patients are hot like Sulphur + perspiration like Silica + cravings like Calcarea carbonica. Overall, Sanicula is like Calcarea phosphorica, 

• TWO PATHOLOGIES –

When there is a combination of two or more pathologies which have nothing in common, this can be taken as the peculiar characteristic of the case and lead us to the appropriate homoeopathic remedy.

1. Formica rufa has a combination of polyps + arthritis.
2. Kali nitricum has a combination of dropsy + asthma.
3. Curare has both diabetes + debility.
4. Conium has both tumors + paralysis.
5. Convallaria majus has the combination of palpitations + pain in uterus.
6. Diptherinum  has  a  combination  of  3  pathologies,  paralysis  +  tumor  + gangrene.
7. Uranium nitricum has debility + dropsy + diabetes. This remedy has a keynote of rapid emaciation.
8. Lycopus virginicus is a remedy that has both blood pressure + thyroid complaints.
9. Carbo animalis has tumors + debility + slowness.
10. Coccus cacti is the remedy that has spasms + stones + dropsy.

• SMALL REMEDY, BIG SYMPTOM –

Suppose we see a patient whose main complaint is cough which is aggravated by lying down, when we investigate the repertory, we see there are hundreds of remedies including the common polychrests like Sulphur and Arsenicum album. If we look at the smaller,  more peculiar remedies, the remedy that has this symptom the strongest is Aralia racemosa. This is Burnett’s favourite remedy for cough.

Adrenalin

Keynotes:

Constriction of chest + high blood pressure are the main keynotes of the remedy Adrenalin.

Ammonium benzoicum

Keynotes:

The  indicated  remedy  for  gout  with  urinary  incontinence  is  Ammonium benzoicum.

Aralia racemosa Keynotes:

Cough < lying down is the main keynote of the remedy.

Damiana

Keynotes:

Damiana is the main remedy for low sexual desire in females in its highest intensity.

Daphne indica

Keynotes:

Daphne indica has the main indication for craving for tobacco.

• ORGAN-SPECIFIC REMEDIES –

Famous  French  homoeopath  Bernoville  investigated  many  organ-specific remedies. He would specifically call these remedies drainage remedies, where the remedy is specifically indicated for that organ.

Ceanothus Keynotes:

When spleen is affected the main remedy is Ceanothus.

Fel tauri

Keynotes:

The  main  site  of  action  of  the  remedy  Fel  tauri  is  on  the  gall  bladder  and intestines.

Ferrum iodatum Keynotes:

Ferrum iodatum has main action on the glands.

Ferrum magneticum

Keynotes:

The main site of action of Ferrum magneticum is on the palms of the hands.

Gnaphalium

Keynotes:

For this remedy, the main site of action is on the sciatic nerve.

Gossypium

Keynotes:

When the main action is on the ovary, think of the remedy Gossypium.

• REMEDIES MADE FROM THE SAME ORGAN –

Here, taking a leaf out of Constantine Hering’s book, we investigate the use of remedies prescribed that come from the affected organ, in potentized form.

For example, giving the remedy Retina 200, for a patient of retinitis pigmentosa. Other organs that have been potentized and used in practice:

• Optic nerve
• Retina
• Duodenum
• Carcinoma liver
• Carcinoma stomach

Using the remedies made from the same organs is an approach I use in an intercurrent manner.

• REMEDIES RELATED TO HORMONES (SARCODES) –

If the symptoms of the patient show an excess and/or deficiency of specific hormones, we can use this to proceed with the case.

Cortisone

Keynotes:

When a patient comes with symptoms like obesity, a moon face, swelling on the back of the neck (like a buffalo hump), without anything to do with Cushing’s syndrome, the remedy to think of here would be Cortisone.

Pancreatinum

Keynotes:

In cases where the pancreas is at fault, causing extreme burning, reminding one of Iris versicolor, the remedy to be thought of is Pancreatinum.

Parathyroidinum

Keynotes:

In extreme cases of calculi and calcification of glands, Parathyroidinum 1M is often prescribed. The pathological effect of the illness is covered by the remedy as well.

Pituitrinum

Keynotes:

This remedy is indicated in pathologies where the pituitary gland needs to be excited to increase the action.

For example, after a stroke the pituitary gland is affected. A dose of Pituitrinum 1M stimulates the vital force.

• INDIAN DRUGS WITH RELATION TO  HOMOEOPATHIC REMEDIES –

Indian remedies are used often in ayurvedic pharmacopeia with good results. They are often to be remembered with the other homoeopathic remedies, and can be used as comparisons.

Andersonia rohitaka

Keynotes:

This remedy is known as “Rohitaka” in Bengali, and has been named by all Hindu physicians as “Plihaghati”, meaning that it does away with all splenic disorders.

There is constipation, which is a characteristic symptom of the drug. There is no desire for food, taste of the mouth is insipid or bitter and the patient feels laziness while getting out of the bed in the morning.

This  remedy  bears  a  great  resemblance  to  Cephalandra  indica,  Kalmegh, Azadirachta indica, Nyctanthes arbor-tristis and Khet-papapra with regard to the burning sensation of eyes, face, hands and feet consequent to chronic fevers.

Open  air,  cold  breeze  or  cold  application  generally  mitigates  or  relieves  all pains, especially burning of the body.

Azadirachta indica

Keynotes:

This  remedy  is  known  as  the  Indian  Lycopodium  and  its  common  name  is Neem. The mind state differs, where the Azadirachta indica patient is humble, sentimental  and  non-dictatorial.  Like  the  Lycopodium  patient,  they  have  an aggravation from warmth, amelioration from flatulence, are aggravated between 4-8pm and crave warm drinks. These patients are generally worse in winter.

• BACH FLOWER RELATION WITH HOMOEO- PATHIC REMEDIES –

Bach Flower Remedies are very useful in homoeopathic practice. We can use them successfully in potentized form as well.

Agrimony

Keynotes:

Agrimony is comparative to remedies like Ignatia, they like to keep the grief inside.  This  remedy  feels  tortured,  is  fearful,  yet  talks  with  a  smiling  face. There  is  suppressed  grief,  and  these  patients  hold  their  breath  to  get  rid  of pain (ddx. Belladonna). There are hepatic and renal affections. This remedy is  useful  after  suppressed  mental  traumas,  and  is  often  used  in  cancers  of the stomach. These patients will never discuss their suffering with anybody, and often there is a conflict between employer and employee. The suppression can  lead  to  psychosomatic  disorders.  There  is  also  artificial  smiling  in  this remedy.

The mental emotional picture for Agrimony is a keynote in itself. The patient who needs this remedy has masked troubles; is anxious and worried internally, has forced cheerfulness externally; hides ones sufferings, even though suffering internal torment; is full of interest in life; is a daredevil and reckless in all ways, is active and restless, always on the move, requires little sleep, is interested in the occult and magic, makes believe one is happy and cheerful while at heart one prefers death, seeks excitement, desires stimulants and is worried by an imaginary prosecutor.

Crab apple

Keynotes:

Crab apple is very similar to the remedy Lac caninum. There is a sense of uncleanliness, fogginess of the eye, tonsillitis, sore throat, ulcerative disorders of the mouth, burns and scalds.

• CHILDREN’S TYPES –

There are some remedies which are used more often in clinical practice for children, which may not be used traditionally.

MMR vaccine

Keynotes:

This remedy is good for those patients who experience complaints from taking the MMR vaccine. This remedy is indicated especially in children with ADHD, and has become widely useful in clinical practice.

Morgan pure

Keynotes:

Morgan pure is a bowel nosode with Sulphur-like indications.

Saccharum officinarum

Keynotes:

• Fat obese children
• Cross irritable like Cina
• Refuse food always
• Craving sweets
• Hyperactive
• Restless

Teucrium marum verum

Keynotes:

This remedy is indicated for sensitive children. Even the least bit of cold air or anything else aggravates the child. All factors aggravate the child’s complaints. 

• BOWEL NOSODES and OTHER NOSODES –

Bowel nosodes and other nosodes are useful in clinical practice.

“The value of the nosodes of human disease products lies in the fact that each one in a different relationship possesses the sum total background of racial miasmatic development. In this connection I offer a suggestion in the social study of the much discussed psychology of ‘mob action’ often syphilitic in its brutality and unreasonableness, sycotic in action and persistency, and psoric in the welding of many persons from various social strata toward a unified purpose.  The  explosive  element  represents  the  release  of  the  suppressed miasmatic accumulation, producing an effect entirely against the routine of long established custom.”

• Waffensmith, 1929.

Anthracinum

Keynotes:

• History of cancer, tuberculosis, diabetes, 
• Craving, aversion or intolerance of one or more of these – salt.

Other indications include:

• Afraid of cars and react as if every car were about to run over them. (Didier Grandgeorge).

• ALLOPATHIC DRUGS AND TOXICOLOGY –

This is just the beginning of a revolutionary approach in homoeopathy. I am always trying to think of different ways to heal the suffering and as there are a lot of failures in cancer cases, this made me think out of the box. This approach cannot be used solely, but it has to be used along with other approaches, or it can be used through an intercurrent approach.

This began when I was visiting the out-patient departments in NIH hospital – I was seeing almost 70-80 cancer patients every day and I was not able to give results in all the cases. Many patients who were taking treatment under me died as they were terminally ill cancer patients. These patients were left by allopaths telling them that they would only live a few days.

Now, I don’t think we can cure them, but cure is a very relative word. We can definitely help them to decrease the amount of suffering which they undergo.

Initially,  I  started  giving  a  few  remedies  as  complementary  to  our  so-called constitutional remedies. As I was seeing a great number of patients I was able to see a clinical pattern in them and began recording this very pattern. After a few cases, I was very confident because I was seeing miraculous results.

I remember one case where I was giving Thuja for prostate cancer and it was not getting better. Then I started Ferrum picrate, another important remedy with indications, but I couldn’t see relief. With hope dwindling, I gave a few doses of Flutamide 30C. In a week’s time, the PSA changed. I still have the reports which read that it came down from 600 mg/dl PSA to 3 mg/dl PSA.

After this, I started seeing more and more prostate cancer patients and I elicited a characteristic indication of it. It is similar to Thuja with brown spots on the skin, chilliness and early morning stool.

A  word  of  caution  should  be  mentioned  here.  It  is  with  a  lot  of  dedication and  preciseness  that  I  prescribe  these  remedies.  These  remedies  need  to  be prescribed as an intercurrent to the main remedy. They act as a complementary and are an immense help.

• ADDICTIONS and LAYERS –

In today’s world, there are many people who have a past history of addictions, in addition to newly developed sensitivities to certain food items which have relevance in developing current pathologies.

Lobelia inflata

Keynotes:

Lobelia inflata is indicated for patients who are chilly, have an aggravation from hunger, and a history of tobacco intake.

Quercus glandium spiritus

Keynotes:

This remedy has a history of alcohol addiction. Clarke specifically used it in flatulent patients with a history of piles.

Radium bromide

Keynotes:

Radium bromide is the remedy used for patients who have a history of radiation therapy. There is Rhus tox-like joint complaints, and these patients are better by a warm bath.

Tabacum

Keynotes:

The Tabacum patient has a history of tobacco addiction and cardiac or blood pressure rising suddenly.

Dr. Sarkar’s Materia Medica and Clinical Keynotes

ABELMOSCHUS

Keynotes:

In most cases of hard stool and constipation, I use this remedy as an intercurrent. It is very similar to Plumbum metallicum. This remedy is known for pyorrhea, stomatitis, offensive smell of mouth with increased urea (ddx. Kali chlor) and kidney disorders.

ABROMA AUGUSTA

Keynotes:

In the clinical field, Abroma augusta is known as the diabetes + Bryonia remedy. This is one of the main remedies clinically indicated for diabetes mellitus. High blood sugar is associated with symptoms that include dry lips and dry mucous membrane  with  thirst  for  cold  water.  Other  associated  symptoms  include constipation, aggravation by movement, and frontal headache. The cough can be very similar to Bryonia, where the cough is aggravated by movement, and there is pain in the chest while coughing.The mind state can be hysterical and quite irritable. These patients would get angry, say things out of context and they can get extremely irritable about trifles, especially with painful and irregular menses. Another concomitant is joint pains that are worse by movement, along with diabetes. This can be the one of the main plants by which diabetes can be controlled.

ABROTANUM Keynotes:

“Metastasis” is the keynote of this remedy.

Dr. Sarkar says, “Like how Burnett (whose writings I have been inspired by) would  be  called  ‘Mr.  Urtica  urens’,  I  would  be  honored  to  be  called  ‘Mr. Abrotanum’.

Abrotanum also causes alternating conditions, one diseased condition disappears and  another  appears.  For  example,  piles  alternating  with  rheumatism.  The 

Dr. Sarkar’s Approach in Case-taking

When I approach a case I begin looking for a chronology of events and ask questions such as, when and how did it start, what were the first symptoms, which organ system affected, what were the characteristics of those symptoms at that time? In addition, I also look at the direction in which the symptoms move 

• which side did it start, did it move or did it stay in a local area?

I aim to elicit exact symptoms and look for the causative factors – there may be one, or usually, there are many. With each symptom, location, sensation, modality and concomitant are critical to complete the symptom and to aid in prescribing an accurate remedy.

When investigating each symptom, I explore it in depth until I get a peculiar characteristic. This can be in any area of the case, mental, emotional or physical. I emphasize the importance of peculiar symptoms because that is what will ultimately help to match the patient to the remedy. I also place great importance on concomitant symptoms as they will help to quantify and qualify the experience of the patient.

Usually, the mind symptoms come at the very end. Unlike other schools of homoeopathy who investigate the mind and mental picture of the patient first, I choose to leave it to the end. If we start with mind symptoms, then we theorize and conceptualize what the patient says. This is dangerous because if the mind symptoms are not clear and exact, then you are at a risk for theorizing. It is much more useful to start with the symptoms that are sure and dependable – choose symptoms that are factual.

In a clinical setting, we must try to understand the “apparent” behaviour of the patient, and must question whether or not what they are showing is true – is there a shield that the patient is putting up or are they revealing their true self? We have to distinguish between persona versus reality – persona is a mask or shield, and as homoeopathic practitioners, we have to aim to remove the mask and find the reality. In order to do this, we must first and foremost analyze ourselves before others. If the patient is comfortable with the physician then you can find out hidden information. When there is a good bond at an emotional level  with  the  patient,  you  can  ask  about  the  mental  symptoms.  Once  your patient is weeping in front of you, that is the best example that there is a good bond established.

Dr. Sarkar’s Acute Prescriptions

First and foremost, one must be practical in acute situations. If you know how to tackle the situation of acutes with homoeopathic medicines, you will gain confidence and your patients will gain confidence in you and in homoeopathy as an effective system of medicine. It is faulty to say that homoeopathy only treats chronic diseases – we automatically handicap our system of medicine by believing this.

After the discovery of antibiotics, steroids and medicines alike, allopathic schools took the upper hand – but if you go through the history, before the discovery of antibiotics, most of the acute situations were helped by homoeopathic doctors. Dr. R.E. Robert, in the First World War, used homoeopathy. He treated soldiers with remedies like Calendula, Arnica and Dulcamara. Also, most of the malarial and typhoid epidemics are cured by homoeopathic medicine.

Most acute conditions are self-limiting in nature; you can either give or not give a medicine in allopathy. As homoeopaths, we give medicine to minimize the suffering and to shorten the period of suffering in acute conditions. For example, in Mumbai in rainy season, think of the remedies Dulcamara, Natrum sulph, Aranea diadema, Rhus tox, and Nycnanthes.

Diagnosis is a MUST to become a successful practitioner. You have to know the allopathic side and correlate this with your materia medica – remember this!

For example, if you know the application of Arnica, you can control most acute conditions and nothing else is required. We specifically know this remedy for its use after injuries, falls, accidents, surgeries and for bruising, however this remedy also covers conditions like heart attacks or cerebral attacks, left-sided hemiplegia, and hemorrhage. If the area is hot, prescribe Arnica, for left sided hemiplegia with full bound pulse, prescribe Arnica. If the patient is unable to recognize a grave situation (ex. a patient has lung cancer but still smokes), has a tired heart, is depleted after physical exertion or after dancing, vomits stool (intestinal obstruction), has a rigid personality, prescribe this remedy! Until and unless symptoms of another medication are indicated, use Arnica.

The  following  acute  conditions  can  be  treated  very  successfully  using homoeopathic medicines – see below for more details.

Curing in Layers and  

The Ladder Approach to Prescription

The Layers concept in homoeopathy was established by Dr. Foubister and I regularly use this concept in my practice.

Words from Dr. Foubister:

“We  may  consider  the  prescription  of  Streptococcin in  chronic disease where there is a history of acute streptococcal infection very  probably  including  severe  infection  in  the  mother  during pregnancy.  Given  such  a  history,  there  are  two  kinds  of  cases where consideration of a comparatively unproved remedy seems justifiable.  Firstly,  when  there  is  unsatisfactory  response  to reasonably well-chosen medicines; when there is a tendency to relapse,  or  when  there  is  only  partial  improvement.  Secondly, where  streptococcal  infection  immediately  precedes  chronic illness or when it is an outstanding event in the history although separated  by  a  comparatively  healthy  interval  from  the  illness under consideration.

Naturally, cases combining these features more strongly suggest Streptococcin, especially when it is difficult to find a similar proved remedy. These remarks can obviously be applied in consideration of other nosodes of acute infectious diseases. When there has been a  number  of  severe  acute  illnesses,  Dr.  Gordon,  of  Edinburgh, maintains  that  best  results  can  be  obtained  by  antedoting  the most recent infection first by its appropriate nosode, proceeding backwards  and  thus  “curing  in  layers”.  Another  view  is  that other things being equal, the first lapse from health is of greatest importance and that this should be antedoted first to undermine the superstructure and then deal with the case according to the remaining symptoms.”

I also frequently utilize the Ladder of Remedies concept of Dr. Burnett, to assist in chronic, complex cases. A ladder approach uses a series of remedies one after another, which ultimately lead to the restoration of the health in the patient. I find that to effectively help patients, the ladder approach is very beneficial because it 

Illustrative Cases of Dr. Sarkar

The following cases are great success stories from my clinical practice. I have used many of the remedies that I have mentioned in the above materia medica. These  cases  are  accompanied  by  investigations  and  reports  that  depict  the efficacy of homoeopathic medicines.

Furthermore, it is important to know that I do not employ polypharmacy in my cases. I adopt the ladder approach while treating patients – similar to Dr. Burnett. This means that I prescribe one remedy after another, not two at the same time.

CASE ONE

Case of Papillary Serous Cystadenoma Carcinoma of the Ovary Case Summary:

This is a case of a post operative-papillary serous cystadenoma carcinoma of the ovary. The patient has a history of anxiety and indigestion, due to stress at home. There was also a police case in the family because of which, she had  a  lot  of  stress.  Other  symptoms  include  motion  sickness,  thirstlessness, burning  sensation  before  urination  and  micturition,  radiating  pain  from  LIF to umbilicus, electric sensation in the abdomen, aggravated by lying on the left side, and hot flushes from the vertex. The patient has been in menopause for the past 4 years, she has a past history of typhoid, irregular menses and dysfunctional  uterine  bleeding.  She  has  dreams  of  snakes  all  around  her,  is fearful of snakes, and is generally fearful. The patient is extremely forgetful, gets  angry  and  throws  things  in  anger.  She  cannot  tolerate  hunger,  desires spicy food and sweets.

Initial Investigations: 

The initial cancer marker reads 710.2 U/ml.

226   JUST YOU SEE

Experience with Dr. Sarkar

The following excerpts and experiences are from a wide array of homoeopathic doctors and students who have sat with me in my clinic in West Bengal.

Dr. Sujit Chatterjee

World-Renowned Homoeopathic Doctor, Senior Consultant at       the other song – International Academy of Advanced Homoeopathy,  Lecturer and Cancer Specialist

I visited Dr. Sarkar at his clinic in a remote village in West Bengal. To find the way to his clinic, we were communicating over the phone. When I reached there, I saw many patients who were waiting. As I approached the clinic, he came out to receive me. I was very touched by this gesture and by his humbleness – and I feel that it was a sign of a true wise man.

When we sat, he shared several cases with me, a few of which were amazing.

I remember a case of a young male patient who was suffering from lung cancer. He had history of taking sodium bicarbonate (a home remedy) for his acidity. He also had an aversion to bread and intolerance to milk. The patient was afraid and aggravated by thunderstorms. Although it was not gastric cancer, Dr. Sarkar prescribed Natrum carb for this patient and there was remarkable improvement. He  even  showed  me  documents  and  various  investigations  that  showed  the improvement for several years.

Another  case,  which  I  was  intrigued  by,  was  a  case  of  very  bad  eczema. Dr. Sarkar prescribed  Arsenicum  album,  with  the main  indication of  arsenic poisoning symptoms. He explained to me that in West Bengal, water contains this impurity in a high level. What surprised me is that he did not prescribe on the keynotes of Arsenicum that I knew – it was not based on midday or midnight aggravation, restlessness or fear of death. He prescribed from simple observations of typical skin symptoms like bigger, brown patches/ spots on the skin and all over the body.

Throughout my time with Dr. Sarkar, I also saw many good results with the remedy Carcinosin. On observation, many cases of Carcinosin have numerous amounts of moles, a family history of cancer, fastidiousness, love for nature and has no major illnesses in the past.

BOOK	CONCEPT(S)
The Elements of Homoeopathy by Dr. P. Sankaran	This book illustrates practically every aspect of homoeopathic medicine, whether it is the study of Materia Medica, Hints on Case-Taking, Value of Repertory, Cross References to the Repertory, Difficulties  in  Practice,  and  The  Scope  of Homoeopathy.
The Spirit of Homoeopathy	This  book  is  divided  into  four  sections: Philosophy, The Mind, Case-Taking and Finding the  Remedy,  and  Materia  Medica.  The  first section looks at what disease is – the origin and the dynamics of disease. The second investigates the understanding of delusions, mental state as a whole and body-mind connection. The third section covers the artistic aspect of homoeopathy, understanding  the  patient.  The  final  section furthers  the  understanding  of  remedies,  and includes remedies as examples.
The Substance of Homoeopathy	This  book  illustrates  how  delusions  can be  classified  using  Hahnemann’s  theory  of miasms. With numerous illustrative cases, this classification can be used as a map of disease to facilitate remedy selection. A detailed study of homoeopathic drugs with reference to their source  revels  the  purpose  of  the  traditional classification  into  plant,  animal  and  mineral kingdom.
The Soul of Remedies	Clear,  concise,  confirmed  descriptions  of  the inner view of a hundred different remedies and how they express this in clinical situations.
The System of Homoeopathy	Illustrating  the  method  of  case-taking,  case analysis and follow-up, this book includes detailed cases and a number of short cases, through which emerges a System of Homoeopathy. Hints and guidelines about understanding the mental state, eliciting the mind and body connection, central delusion, what to do and what not to do with dreams, plus a further understanding of miasms and kingdoms.

BOOK	CONCEPT(S)
The Sensation in Homoeopathy	Using  numerous  case  examples,  this  book gives one the ability to know at all times in a given case, where to begin and where to aim, through The Seven Levels of Experience. This way of working gives a definitive pathway for case-taking, a means by which to observe and utilize the active energy patterns of the patient (hand gestures and movements), plus a way of matching the patient’s level to the remedy and potency that is required.
An Insight into Plants – Volumes 1, 2, 3	This  book  provides  a  framework  of  how  the plant kingdom can be classified and understood. Tracing the common sensation of each family, this book shows how this sensation can be seen in  the  remedies  in  that  family.  The  remedies are differentiated by the miasm to which they belong.
Sankaran’s Schema	This  book  aims  to  bring  in  a  nut  shell,  in  a tabulated  form,  the  different  concepts  and information  spread  over  Dr.  Sankaran’s  books  –  The  Spirit  of  Homoeopathy,  The  Substance of Homoeopathy, The System of Homoeopathy, The Sensation in Homoeopathy, and An Insight into  Plants  (Volume  I,  II,  III),  and  Sensation Refined.
Structure – Experiences with the Mineral Kingdom	The periodic table readily lends itself to the task of classification. Its seven rows and 18 columns can  be  understood,  seen  and  experienced as  stages  of  human  development.  Recent explorations  into  the  rows,  backed  by  several clinical  cases,  provings  and  research,  have thrown new light on the Mineral Kingdom that makes  it  significantly  easier  to  recognize  the remedies in practice.

 

BOOK	CONCEPT(S)
Sensation Refined	This book addresses the problems and pitfalls that  seekers  in  this  method  face.  It  answers many  queries  about  the  sensation  and  its expression, and how to understand it better, in a clearer and simpler way. Here, there is a deeper understanding  of  the  experience,  living  it  and seeing almost nothing else.
Survival – The Mollusc	Within are described the qualities of Mollusca in  nature,  its  subdivisions,  and  expressions  in the  human  being.  Each  of  these  is  described with  source  words,  proving  information  and clinical cases, to make it easy to recognize in clinical practice.
Survival – The Reptile (Volume 1 and 2)	Within are described the qualities of Reptilia in nature, its subdivisions, and expressions in the human being. Each of these is described with source words, proving information and clinical cases, to make it easy to recognize in clinical practice.
The Synergy in Homoeopathy –  An integrated approach to case-taking and analysis	An  integrated  approach  to  case-taking  and analysis.  Never  before  has  the  connection between  the  patient  and  the  remedy  been  so clear – symptoms and system are two sides of the same coin and this results from an integrated approach.  Both  the  factual  and  conceptual aspects of the patient and the remedy must be seen  together.  The  knowledge  of  old  masters, such  as  C.M.  Boger,  is  explained  in  detail. Through illustrative cases, the secret of success is  depicted  through  this  integrated  approach. Through  a  seamless  blending  of  the  old  and new, conventional and contemporary, the results are proof of a quantum leap in homoeopathic practice.
Synergy in Practice	Practical application of the Synergy Approach in  homoeopathic  practice  illustrated  through numerous cases.

Headed by Dr. Rajan Sankaran and supported by Homoeopathic Research and Charities (Mumbai) and World Institute for Sensation Homoeopathy (WISH.) ‘the  other  song:  International  Academy  of  Advanced  Homoeopathy’  is  the culmination  of  a  vision  shared  by  a  group  of  like-minded  homoeopaths,  of establishing a world class institute that has developed into a hub for homoeopathic healing, learning and research.
