Ans:- Homeopathy influences the body’s energy rather than its chemical balance. Hence, the remedies do not cause side effects since there is no chemical trace to accumulate in the tissues. For the same reasons, it is not possible to take an overdose of homeopathic medicine in the same way as in allopathic medicine (which works on a chemical level) Homeopathic remedies are therefore not intrinsically dangerous. Yet, they are capable of stimulating the body’s reactive forces powerfully and should be treated with respect.
Ans:- Homeopathic remedies cure the whole as opposed to the symptoms. The time it takes to cure symptoms is directly dependent on the complexity of the ailment. Since the remedy works from inside out, internal disorders are the first to be cured as opposed to superficial outer symptoms. Be patient, for it is more beneficial to cure the cause of the illness as well as the symptoms, rather than simply relieve the symptoms. Two patients with a cold may look similar but may have completely different remedies prescribed to them
Ans:- Usually not. The duration of the treatment depends upon the nature of the disease and the fighting capacity of the patient's body. The treatment is required for a certain time period so as to improve the resistance of the body to fight diseases. Taking into consideration all these factors the treatment is continued for a certain time frame for the benefit of the patient. Once the patient starts improving we stop the medicines and the natural immunity and control mechanism of the body will take care of the rest of the problems.
Ans:- Detailed history is very essential as homeopathy believes in treating the individual and not the disease. So the physician needs to know the individual and not about his disease. Also, chronic diseases are due to the suppression of skin affections or emotions; hence detailed history will reveal whether any past ailments suppressed has to lead to the present complaints.
Every incidence affects our life, so it is very important to know all the incidences and the impact it had on the patients. Hence a detailed history right from childhood till date is needed to find the right medicine which suits the patient. If you co-operate and give honest and detailed history we can help you to achieve a better and healthy life.
