That was news to me. That site says this:
"It is often claimed in expert literature that Q and LM-potencies are identical, which is absolutely wrong for several reasons:
"1. For the preparation of an LM-potency according to the Homoeopathic Pharmacopoea 2006 HV 17, no fresh-plant trituration is used but [instead] an alcoholic extract in the form of a mother tincture, which is the most important difference.
"2. The trituration of liquid substances in the case of the C3-trit does not follow the principles of Hahnemann. There is no real trituration, the substances are simply mixed and dried."
I don't know if that's true in the U.S., but it wouldn't surprise me since our pharmacists are and always have been infuriating to us.
