Homeopathy is widely accepted as an alternative medicine. Though they treat only patients and not the ailments, people rush and wait for their turn in front of a homeopath. It is the careful selection of medicine, potency and the dose that makes it effective. There are several specifics say for example, nasal polyp, modern medicine prescribe only nasal sprays and ultimately surgery. But surgery may have to be repeated every two years or so. But the specific medicine in homeopathy treats it permanently. But you should not go to a homeopath for a hepatitis B or cancer. For cold and chest disorders, I recommend ayurvedic medicine. Every system has its own strong and weak points. It all depends on your experience.

HOMEOPATHY is basically trial and error method.For each ailment , there are 5 to 10 medicines.If all the symptoms match, then only it will suit the patient.The doctor should go through all the symptoms and then only he can prescribe.For Arthritis, there are more than 5 to medicines.Principle of Homeopathy is Cure the Patient, not the disease

If I say one word against it, many would say that I have been paid by pharmaceutical giants to talk against homeopathy or that it is a propaganda. However, I believe logic is the way to decide what one should follow. Herearesome facts about homeopathy that one should be aware of, and I hope it will make you think twice before resorting to homeopathy or at least check the credibility of the homeopath you visit.
- It is not an Indian science
Many people aren't aware homeopathyis a German science and was created by a doctor named Samuel Hahnemann in 1796. Since, it is widely and blindly followed in India, many believe that it is an Indian science. Homeopathy came to India only in 1810, when a French traveler named Dr. John Martin Honigberger, a student of Dr. Samuel Hahnemann, came to India and treated patients. In 1839, on his second visit to India, he treated the then ruler of Punjab, Maharaja Ranjeet Singh, suffering from paralysis of the vocal chords. His medicine cured the Maharaja, and he was so impressed that he made Honigberger the chief physician of his court. After the Maharaja's death, Honigberger moved to Calcutta where he began his practice and hence began the advent of homeopathy in India.
- Treatment differs from person to person
Homeopathic treatment is also highly individualized and differs from person to person. The properties of the medicines are very similar to the condition or the disease a person is suffering from. Also, homeopathy not only takes into account the signs and symptoms of the diseases but also considers the patient's physical build, temperament, personality and other genetic factors.Homeopathy works on the principle of 'like cures like'. It means that a substance responsible for causing illness in a healthy individual can be used to treat patients suffering from the same illness. Allopathic medicine, on the other hand, uses active pharmacological agents or physical interventions like surgeries to treat, cure or suppress the symptoms of various diseases and conditions.
- No studies prove that homeopathy is effective in treating diseases
Many of you must have had first-hand experiences and will not think twice before resorting to homeopathy again or even suggesting it to other people. But as a matter of fact there is no properly documented proof that homeopathy has been effective in treating various diseases. Although there are a few studies, that claim that homeopathy is effective, most of them have serious design flaws or have not been properly documented.
- Many countries have warned its people against using homeopathy
Various countries have warned its people to think twice before resorting to homeopathic medicine. After the House of Common in The UK called homeopathy 'no better than a placebo' in 2010, The National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC), Australia, too recently deemed it ineffective. It has reservations against using it to treat serious conditions as it is a slow process and not getting appropriate treatment immediately could actually make the condition worse and prove fatal.
- Homeopathy medicines could be as good as placebos
Homeopathy also works on the principle of minimum dosage. The medicines are thinned with either alcohol or water and at times are diluted so many times that only a trace of the active substance remains. Homeopaths claim that this trace quantity of the active substance is enough to invoke a healing response in the patient. However, the doses are so low that the pills become as good as placebos (medicines that have no active ingredient in them). Placebos are known to be effective as some people do respond to them. It is important to note that modern medicines are tested on the basis of how well they outperform placebos. This fact has given rise to the exploitation of homeopathy and many quacks nowadays simply hand you a little jar of white sugar pills.- Not all medicines are diluted
However, not all medicines are highly diluted and some of them contain the active ingredients in enough quantities to cause side effects. Hence it is best to visit a credible homeopath and use medicines under his/her guidance.
- It has no side effects
Highly diluted homeopathic medicines taken under the guidance of trained doctors are usually safe. It could also be because, to invoke a side effect, a medicine or drug first has to contain an active ingredient. The dilution in some homeopathy medicines is so high that many claim it has no effect at all to invoke a side effect. However, some medicines can be concentrated and un-monitored use and self-prescription can be dangerous.
- You should not replace conventional medicines with homeopathy
If you are suffering from a health issue, get it first diagnosed and treated using conventional medicine. Do not delay treatment because of homeopathy. It is a comparatively slower process and your condition can worsen if not treated at the right time.
- Homeopathy cannot always be used with conventional medicines
Many people believe homeopathic medicines are harmless and can be continued with other forms of medicines; it is not. Some homeopathy medicines contain heavy metals like mercury and iron and can interfere with working of conventional medicines. Hence it is best to inform your doctor about the medicines that you are already taking to prevent side effects.
