Hello Prof Arshad,
In India most of the homeopaths are using compound medicines. There are atleast two hundred homeopathic pharmacies which are working in different part of India. Most of the residential homeopaths of india are prescribing compound medicines. And you know you just need one minute to listen the problem of a patient and simply handover already prepared blister packings of medicine to that patient. This takes hardly one minute or so?
Do you know one of the moderator of HHBB from india has seen 10 (TEN) million patients. 
This credit goes to Master Mind that he brought so much confrontation in the use of the word
classical homeopath that no body is now interested in using this word for him or her.
That master mind presented so much confliction in the principles of classical homeopathy that no body believes in classical homeopathy now. Everybody has started supporting dr peter compound medicine.
That moderator now disclaimed on this board a few days ago that he is not a classical homeopaths.
I appreciate his courage.
One of the member (I will not name that person) said even then in acute condition as pointed out by snoopy you need simple full case, you know when you need full case obviously you will spend time and it will not be possible to select one single remedy by asking five/ten questions. so I disagree with snoopy with respect. Whether acute, normal, abnormal, simple chronic and hard chronic in all cases a simple homeopath need some time to evaluate the case.
It is not possible in five minutes. :razz: Yes it is possible when the patient says, I am suffering from diarrhoea you write some compound medicines accordingly and your dispensor hand over them to concerned patient. No more questioning required.
