So, conclusive meaning of artificial morbific agent as told by Dr. Hahnemann, is that artificial morbific agent is a medicine which is capable of producing disease. 

Why "artificial" word is used to denote medicine? It is used to denote medicine because disease developed due to medicine intake is not naturally developed disease; it is created artificially through medicinal effect of medicine.

Now, as medicine created disease artificially, when given under specific conditions, specifically favorable to them and disease developed by them is not nature's created sickness, its artificially created. As, anything man made is given name "artificial" prefix to it. Similarly, word "artificial" is prefixed to "morbific agent", when it is used to denote that medicine which is taken for long years and with time have created artificial medicinal disease inside human body.
