-There is a lot of confusion regarding the identification of //Aloe socotrina// (not only) in homeopathic literature. Most authors are content with a name //Aloe socotrina// (which is not a recognized scientific name, hence close to useless), some that do provide a scientific name, mostly provide an incorrect one (Aloe vera, Aloe barbadensis or Aloe spicata -- all incorrect). Only Vermeulen seems to have identified the correct name of the source plant //Aloe perryi//. Some pharmacies seem to prepare the remedy from //Aloe ferox// (Boiron, Gudjons((http://​www.gudjons.com/​apotheke/​2_arznei.htm))). The French and German pharmacopeias allegedly advice to use different species and hybrides of Aloe. +There is a lot of confusion regarding the identification of //Aloe socotrina// (not only) in homeopathic literature.

Historical remedy kits (such as Fincke'​s) may contain the remedy prepared from the same substance as used in original provings.
  
 According to Vermeulen: //"The German homoeopathic pharmacopoeia is strict in its directions for the preparation of Aloe: the remedy should be made from the dried and concentrated juice of various species of Aloe, in particular Aloe ferox Miller, known in commerce as Cape Aloes. Pharmacists are advised against the use of Barbados Aloes [A. barbadensis Miller]. Interestingly,​ this '​forbidden'​ variety currently is immensely popular under the name Aloe vera."//​ According to Vermeulen: //"The German homoeopathic pharmacopoeia is strict in its directions for the preparation of Aloe: the remedy should be made from the dried and concentrated juice of various species of Aloe, in particular Aloe ferox Miller, known in commerce as Cape Aloes.
