i know there are various ways to group remedies, e.g., plants - animals - minerals. in this thread i would appreciate hearing some thoughts about preparation, chemical composition (derivation), and characteristic qualities of remedies that share an 'after-the-hyphen' characteristic, such as xxx-carb, or xxx-sulph, or xxx-alb, etc., such as what chemical process do these suffixes represent in the substance being proved; and do these "suffixes" share a family resemblance from one prefix to the next?

thanks,

bach
