Yes most of the homeopathics are in an alcohol base tincture-- but here is what you do to rid the alcohol for dosing-- boil some water- place 1/2 teaspoon boiling water into spoon add 1-2 drops adn let cool-- you have your dose-- alcohol free to put into a dropper or syringe for dosing! We ran into this a while back with a homeopathic remedy we were using for lymphosarcom-- hope this helps!
