Some Trios of Medicines

In my daily practice I had seen that many cases have clear therapeutic
indications, which are very important in acute cases as well as chronic cases. So, in
my opinion a physician must have knowledge of therapeutic indication in cases. In
chronic cases also, physician must focus on his recent complain of chronic case
first, and then he can approach different medicine according to case. Now trios,
which are given by our mentors, are very useful in acute & chronic cases. These are
medicine which having similar indication yet having differential symptoms. Here
