Terebinthina is mostly known in homoeopathy for its use in cases of renal problems

For the homoeopath, after a careful repertorization, there propably exists no doubt about his choice.

But for us, pharmacists, it is not so easy, because Terebinthina is one of the so many drugs whose origen and/or method of preparation changed over the years in the different homoeopathic pharmacopoeias.

The mean objective of this paper is to explain all the difficulties we encounter if we want to prepare Terebinthina according to the Materia Medica the homoeopaths use for their prescription.
