Mostly for the homeopaths, based on an outmoded theory of disease.
HPUS is: The Homœopathic Pharmacopœia of the United States 2X means 1:100 dilution. In other words 1%. Normally homeopathic dilutions are much more. 12X or 600X.

These can be used fresh or dried to make an infusion (tea) or a decoction. For homeopathic remedies, the dried plant material is ground finely then prepared by extensive dilutions.
When you are doing dilutions the larger number is always the total final volume. The smaller number is the amount of the solute. The larger number minus the smaller number is the amount of the solvent. So a 1:5 or a 1 IN 5 dilution would be 1 part solute and 4 parts solvent to come to a total volume of 5.When referencing ratios in mathematics 1:5 means 1 TO 5. The ratio is relative to the two items. For every 1 of the first you have 5 of the second.It is critical if you are making dilutions to understand the difference as the two explanations are not interchangeable.
