True homeopathic remedies are so attenuated as to possess virtually  
no substance of any sort. If you are using unpotentized elixirs, they  
will be alcohol-based. But these are not homeopathic preparations, no  
matter what the label says.

We commonly use Everclear, but also brandy or vodka, to preserve  
liquid preparations made from dissolution of pellet remedies, on the  
order of one teaspoon in four ounces or so. Of course, to stay Paleo  
one could use only brandy for this purpose. In any case, the amount  
is pretty insignificant and easily metabolized away.
