Dosage question

I have a question regarding doses. I have been using Arnica Montana occasionally and just relized that I have two different doses. One is 200ck and the other 12c. Can someone explain the difference between the two doses? Thank you!

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
200C is much stronger than 12C. The 'C' indicates they were prepared by the centessial scale. 1C is one drop material in 99 drops water or alcohol. 2C is one drop of 1C in 99 drops water or alcohol. In otherwords, 1C is a 1% solution, 2C is 1/10000, 3C is 1/1000000. You can safely take the lower potencies more frequently than the higher potencies.

The doses are 12c and 200ck. If the c is the same as the C (capitol), I am still wondering what the ck means. Thanks, Jan

You will also encounter CH and CK, these are equivalent to C, referring to the Centesimal or 1/100 dilution rate. The H and K merely indicate the dilution method used. H indicates that the medicine was prepared according to the Hahnemann method and K the Korsakovian Method.

The Hahnemanian method uses 1 part of the homeopathic potency to 99 parts of alcohol in a new flask and succussed to make the next higher potency on the Centesimal scale.

The Korsakovian method is simpler and quicker and often employed to produce the higher potencies of 200C and above. In the Korsakovian method the same container is used for each succession of the dilution step.

CH is generally referred as simply C.
