Aphorism 68 says that only very small doses of drugs are required to stimulate and mimic the curative secondary effects that the vital force can mount to throw off a disease or a drug. Aphorism 69 declares that allopathy is an uncurative medical system. Aphorisms 70-72 give a summary of all the points made so far in the Organon. Aphorism 73 considers acute disease and aphorisms 74 and 77-79 consider chronic diseases. Aphorisms 80-82 consider the three miasmatic chronic disorders as dyscrasias. The rest of the book comprises supplements about taking the case and other matters, without making any substantially new points to those above. Therefore, the above points comprise the core of homeopathic philosophy.
