English Summary

Homoeopathic Dosage Forms as Seen Cybernetically

Fundamental facts concerning homoeopathy, homoeopathic dosage forms and homoeopathic potentiation are presented and principles of cybernetic system approach to problem solving are described. A general system model for the purposes of optimization of homoeopathic dosage forms is suggested. On the basis of this model, homoeopathic concepts of “image of drug substance” and “potentiation” are criticized and the rationality of homoeopathy is at present considered as doubtful.
