MM is a reference book used together with the repertory by the homeopath in his daily practice.
Although MM are alone written by concrete authors, with the name MM is also referred the whole picture and knowledge of homeopathic remedies. It is widely accepted and understood as possible and even needed for a homeopath to have knowledge and view over at least about two hundred (200) most common homeopathic remedies' materia medica.
In homeopathic prescription classically MM is used after work with the repertory, i.e. after the repertorisation. Then MM confines the repertorisation results.
