About Potencies and Dilutions

A quick reference to the scales you will see on homeopathic labels:

  • X or D (decimal): 1:10 per step.
  • C (centesimal): 1:100 per step.
  • LM or Q: 1:50,000 per step.

Low potencies such as 1X to 6X retain measurable source material; higher potencies do not. Brands differ in how they combine potencies, which is why we list every potency from the label on each product page.
