== Notes on potencies ==
This list contains notes of commonly used potencies, either by homeopaths or available in store-bought preparations. In clinical homeopathy, the choice of potency (dilution & succussion levels) to be used is determined by homeopathic practitioners or physicians on an individual basis. Some limit their use to the lower potencies of 4x (4D) through 30x (30D), while others use 3C through CM (100,000C) potencies.<ref>Jacques Jouanny ''The Essentials of Homeopathic Therapeutics,'' Bordeaux, France: Delmas, 1980</ref> For more information on potencies and dilution, see [[Homeopathic dilutions]].
