What is the difference between 6c, 30c and 200ck? Is it potency?

Hello, Most single homeopathic medicines are available in several dilutions. The letter indicates which dilution process was chosen, while the number indicates how many times that dilution process was used, and consequently, which symptoms the medicine is meant to treat. Here’s a quick guide to using homeopathic medicines: Low dilutions, such as 6X or 6C, will relieve local symptoms— symptom you can point a finger at (i.e., an insect bite or bruise). Medium dilutions, such as 12X, 9C or 12C, will relieve general symptoms—more than one symptom in more than one location (i.e., muscle aches and pains). High dilutions, such as 30X or 30C, will relieve general symptoms—more than one symptom in more than one location with possible behavioral or emotional symptoms (i.e., a very high fever and chills, accompanied by agitation or sleeplessness). If a person has the right medicine, no matter what the dilution, he will see a lessening of symptoms. For most medicines, choosing the right dilution is merely fine tuning. It may be helpful for you to use the Boiron Medicine Finder at www.BoironUSA.com to decide which medicines/dilutions are best to relieve your symptoms. 30C is the highest available dilution of the C scale. 200CK is a medium (â€œrun of the millâ€) dilution of the CK scale. They are not interchangeable or equivalent. C dilutions are more readily available, and more practitioners are trained to use them. Please do not hesitate to contact us with any further questions. Thank you.

What's the difference between the 30c and the 30x?

According to livestrong.com -- "Arnica montana 30X is a decimal potency, while arnica montana 30C is a centesimal. The "30" represents the number of serial dilutions performed on the original substance. As the British Homeopathic Association explains, in a serial dilution the results of one dilution are used for the next dilution. One drop of arnica tincture diluted in 99 drops of alcohol results in the 1C potency, and one drop of the 1C potency in 99 drops of alcohol becomes the 2C potency. Another way to think of it might be that a 30X potency is 1 in 10 to the 30th power, while a 30C is 1 in 100 to the 30th power. The more zeroes, the stronger the remedy.UsesBoth arnica montana 30X and arnica montana 30C are appropriate for at-home first aid. The higher potency, 30C, is appropriate for immediate and acute conditions, while the lower potency, 30X, is appropriate for acute or chronic conditions, explains Dr. Steven Kayne in the summer 2001 edition of the British Homeopathic Association's "Health and Homeopathy" magazine. For example, if you bang your leg into a coffee table you might take a dose of arnica montana 30C immediately to minimize bruising and swelling. If you weren't able to take a dose immediately you might take 30C or 30X a day or two later when you had developed a large purple bruise. If you didn't take any arnica at the time of or shortly after your injury and several weeks later you still had a bruise, you might take arnica montana 30X to help resolve the discoloration."
