FAQ

Because of the tiny amounts of active material in Homoeopathic products, Brauer medicines will not affect the activity of any other medication, and nor will other medications affect the activity of the Brauer product.

This depends upon the person and the condition being treated. For example, a child with colic who is given Brauer Colic Relief may respond in a matter of minutes. An elderly person with arthritis may take several days to respond to Brauer Joint and Muscle Cream. Because Brauer medicines work by harnessing a persons own healing energy, the more energy they have, the quicker the medicines will work.

All Brauer products can be used by diabetics. According to medical studies, both insulin dependant and non-insulin dependant diabetics can tolerate between 30-40g of glucose per day without experiencing a detectable change in their blood glucose. Because this amount is far greater than the sugar content derived from the recommended dose of Brauer products, it would seem that the use of Brauer products there should be little or no effect on the ability of diabetics to maintain their blood sugar levels.

Brauer products are best used only while symptoms are present. Once the symptoms start to improve, the dose frequency can be reduced the medicine can be stopped.

Herbal medicines and supplements such as vitamins and minerals work on the body in a similar way to drugs, and improve the ability of the body to resist disease. Homoeopathy works by stimulating the body’s healing energy when you have a disease or health problem and focuses the body’s own healing energy on the problem to promote recovery.

Yes, but if using more than one Brauer product at a time it’s best to leave half an hour between the doses of the different products.

There has never been a recorded case of any harm coming to baby when Homoeopathic medicines have been used during breastfeeding. In many cases, professional Homoeopaths give breastfeeding mothers the medicines for the baby to take themselves, and the effects of the medicines go through the breast milk to the baby.

These 2 different dose regimes relate to the intensity of the symptoms suffered by the person using the product. If the symptoms are intense, the medicine is best used every half hour for up to 2 hours. If the symptoms are still present but are less intense, the medicine should be used every 4 hours until the symptoms subside. Of course anyone suffering from particularly severe symptoms should consult their healthcare practitioner for advice.

In response to users of the products who have told us that they do not need to use the full dose to get good results, Colic Relief and Teething Relief doses have been halved. This also brings them into line with doses for these age groups in other products of the Baby Care and Child Care categories. The higher doses may still be used if stated on the label without any risk of overdose, but as those labels are replaced, there will be a consistent but sufficient dosage for all age groups across the range of products.

Instructions for Maximum Benefits from Brauer Natural Medicines
Tablets and pilules should be placed under the tongue and allowed to dissolve, and may be chewed and swallowed after 30 seconds.
Oral liquids may be taken directly or under the tongue and held for 30 seconds before swallowing and if desired the medicine may be diluted with a small amount of water.
Creams or gels should be massaged into the affected areas.
Oral sprays deliver a highly accurate and consistent dose, are convenient and have a very rapid rate of absorption. They are sprayed under the tongue and the medicine is absorbed through the blood vessels underneath mucous membranes lining the mouth, making this one of the fastest medicine absorption systems known.
