A VIEW TO PRESCRIPTION

1. Is there anything characteristic to the patient.

As this determines the curability of disease more the characteristics more the curability.

2. Assessment of active miasm of the patient.

To know the prognosis and treatment result and to assess it. To prescribe means an antimiasmatic medicine must be employed.

3. Construct portrait of personality using the personality traits.

4. Assesment of pathology.

It is based on the site and kind of action. It also luk for the duration of action. On the basis of these assessments the pathology can be divided into 4

I: absent/negligible where the pathology is not present but a functional alteration occured due to any cause, avoidable/non avoidable.

II: Mild stage: where there is pathological changes similar to inflamation are present. And is reversible. Almost all the acute disease comes here in initial or non invasive stage.

III: moderate stage- here the changes occur in the structure but not much invasive and a superficial type of change is present. This is mainly due to chronicity of a specific complaint.

IV: Severe- this can be divided into two
IVa:- where there is structural changes but is reversible.
IVb:- where irreversible changes are present.

By assessing this 4 criterias in a case a prescription must be made:
1. Constitutional medicine
2. Acute medicine
3. Palliative medicine.

Constititutional medicine is given where characteristics are present, and where pathological stage is either I, III or IVa. Based on portrait and active miasm and suported by site and kind of action not contraindicated by the characteristic of patient.

An acute prescription based on exciting cause and most trouble some symptom must be done in accordance with the pathology or highly characteristics.

Palliative care is for those who have irreversible changes, more than constitutional medicine or partly similar medicine with similar seat and kind of action should be used.
