The document discusses the purpose and uses of a homeopathic repertory. A repertory is an index of symptoms and associated homeopathic remedies that connects information from the materia medica to clinical cases. It helps homeopaths find symptoms and remedies for chronic or mismanaged cases that do not present a clear picture. The repertory also aids in differentiating between seemingly indicated remedies, determining the sequence of remedies needed to cure, and working out the relationship between initial and follow up prescriptions.
