Homoeopathy

Anaemia is defined as a reduced hemoglobin concentration in blood below the lower limit of normal range, for the age and sex of individual. Normal hemoglobin level of new born at the time of birth is 14-22 %gm/dl, and in infant it is 9.5-13% gm/dl, normal adult hemoglobin lies between 13-16 % gm/dl in males, 11.5-15 % gm/dl in females. The aim of study is to compare Ferrum phos 6x and its combination with homeopathic medicine with the randomized controlled trial that homeopathy is somewhat worth for the treatment of anemia. So in this study the expected result was that the treatment of anemia with Ferrum phos 6x and Ferrum phos 6x along with homeopathic medicines will support in increasing HB level by 1 gm/dl.

Causation plays a major role behind every disease. The cause and its corresponding effect combine with the individuality of the patient helps to form the totality. The Aim and objectiveswas to study the utility of rubric “Ailments from” using Synthesis Repertory 10.0 (RADAR) and its application in Homoeopathic case management, to study the rubrics and sub-rubrics of “Ailments from” through cases with Synthesis Repertory 10.0 and to classify the rubric “Ailments from” in terms of symptomatology. In this study synthesis repertory is used by applying the knowledge of reportorial totality and using the Ailment factor of the illness for treating the case to make the prescription in Homeopathy more substantial. Theneedforthis studywas tofacilitate aclear understandingand importanceof therubric“Ailments from” in clinical practice. Methods: Simple random technique of sampling with 30 cases in which the patient was enrolled till the target of 30 cases was achieved. The cases were selected onbasis of inclusion and exclusion criteria. All cases were taken as per the case record format prepared for the study. Cases was collected from the CollegeOPD, Guide OPD, Peripheral OPD. Constructing the totality of symptoms andrepertorization was done for each case by using RADAR Synthesis repertory 10.0. Prescription of each case was based on the rubric “Ailments from” of the individual case. Changes in symptoms and clinical presentation were the parameters for assessing cases as marked improvement, improving and not improved. Results: Out of 30 cases, 21 cases showed marked improvement, 8 cases were improving and 1 case was not improved. Conclusion: This study provides evidence to say that the rubric “Ailments from” from RADAR Synthesis repertory 10.0 is useful as a characteristic symptom in homoeopathic case management.

In the first phase theoretical study was completed. In which detailed information about Stress, Homoeopathy, Mental Health and Synthesis Repertory & Stress related rubrics was given. In Homoeopathic part with details of case taking, materia medica references & varieties of rubrics related to stress from Synthesis 9.0 Repertory was studied with the help of authentic books, Homoeopathic journals & internet sites.

Introduction: - The Introductory part starts with its prevalence & incidence according to WHO was described. The prevalence of Stress in Indian & its common cause were given. Approach of physician towards a case of Stress was given through Perceived Stress Scale Scores was used for assessment of recovery in details. Aim and Objectives: - of the Study has been discussed very briefly & precisely.

Vitiligo, the pigmentary disorder of indefinite cause is characterized by depigmented or hypo pigmented patches that result from absence or reduction in melanocytes .Vitiligo a disease of cosmetic problem but has much psychosocial impact. The success rate in treating this condition in conventional medicines is limited and sometimes, treatment follows with side effects. Efficacy of Homeopathic medicine in treatment of Vitiligo has fewer case records documented in the past. This is a case treated at Out Patient Department of Motiwala Homoeopathic Medical College and Hospital. The case was treated with Homoeopathic medicine silicea over a period of six months with steady improvement which is evident from the photographs and baseline scores arrived at by using Vitiligo Assessment Score Chart develop by CCRH, which was 16 at the entry and became Zero at the end of sixth month.

Vaccination is the method in which microbes are introduced into the human body that is live or killed and its acts like stimulating immune response and protect the children’s from infectious agents. After the administration of any vaccine, ill effect of vaccine mostly we found. That time we need to prescribe on the basis of acute totality in the acute complication. Constitutional medicine is depending on the physical generals, mental generals and particulars in the chronic complications which are developed after vaccination. Aim of this study is to find out the effect of homoeopathic medicine in the post vaccination syndrome in pediatrics age group. Vaccine causes the adverse effect of vaccination so, to knowing all this thing, the primary objective of this study is to find out the effect of homoeopathic medicine in the post vaccination syndrome. Secondary objective for this study is to find out the specific group of homoeopathic medicine which acts on the post vaccination syndrome. Methods – Simple randomized sampling method with 30 cases in which patients were enrolled till the target was achieved. The patients were selected on the basis of inclusion and exclusion criteria. Patient was considered on the basis of clinical presentation. Prescription of each case was based on the Individualized prescription. Outcome was assessed to measure the reduction in the intensity of the sign and symptoms. Result -All 30 cases were studied after administration of homoeopathic remedy in post vaccination syndrome. Out of 30 cases 27 cases showed improved and 3 cases showed not improved. Study of post vaccination syndrome seen after administration of following vaccines 7 MMR vaccine, 5 Pentavalent vaccine, 8 DPT & OPV vaccine, 4 Hepatitis B vaccine, 2 Typhoid vaccine, 2 JE & Vitamin A vaccine, 1 VAR, 1 IPV vaccine cases. No any specific group of homoeopathic medicine were observed but in this study ThujaOccidentalis, Sulphur, Silicea, and Antim tart were frequently prescribed medicine. Conclusion - This study provides that there is evidence to say that homoeopathic medicine is effective in treating the post vaccination syndrome.

We are quite familiar with the prescription on the basis of Causation. Although, this kind of prescription is strongly supported by a number of cases successfully treated so far, we should not be blind in considering causation. It should be noted that, in some cases, the causation could either be a coincidence or a misconception. Hence always weigh its credibility before you consider. Introduction: Among various systems of medicine, Homoeopathy gives great importance to causation. Causation is one of the elements of symptoms, which when strong and genuine, is of much benefit in the remedial diagnosis, and so far we have come across several successful cures made by remedies selected on this basis. In the field of medicine, the word “Cause” has been used since ages. Physicians knew that there can not be diseases without a cause. Every great discovery and achievements are the result of the curiosity behind the question ‘’WHY’’? [The Cause]. “No smoke could be there without fire” is an old proverb. Among the physicians of orthodox system, the concept of “Tolle causam” (remove the cause) was prevalent. They believed that by removing the cause of a disease, it could be cured. But later they made the mistake by proposing that bacteria are the only cause behind diseases and by removing the bacteria a cure could be attained. But homoeopathy goes further and propagates that there is a cause in the dynamic level that comes to activity much before the invasion of microbes. This dynamic cause should be removed to cure a patient. As per the concept of homoeopathy, thecause behind every disease is derangement of the vital force by the dynamic noxious influences called miasms. This is the real cause that flows into effect in the form of sickness. Hence, tolle causam can be related with both orthodox medicine and homoeopathy, but for the former it is about removing the material cause and for the latter it is the removal of a dynamic cause.
