Department of Repertory

The Tool of Precision: Symptom Analysis & Remedy Selection in Homoeopathy

About the Department

The Department of Repertory at S. M. Deo Homoeopathic Medical College and Hospital teaches the art and science of repertorization — the systematic process of converting patient symptoms into rubrics and finding the similimum using repertories. It is a core subject taught across Second, Third, and Final BHMS years.

Students learn major repertories (Kent, Boericke, Boger-Boenninghausen, Synthesis, Complete, Murphy), repertorization methods (general to particular, totality, elimination, keynote prescribing), and software-assisted repertorization — all integrated with Organon philosophy, Materia Medica, and case taking.

Practical sessions focus on case analysis, rubric selection, repertorial totalling, differential remedy comparison, and final remedy selection, helping students achieve accurate, confident prescribing in clinical practice.
