It is a myth that homeopathy is slow acting. Most of the times what happens is the patient comes to us with long history of chronic illness. Therefore the treatment takes time. Homeopathy is in fact fast acting in acute conditions such as fever, diarrhoea, vomiting, etc.

Homeopathic pills are made from an inert substance (often sugars, typically lactose)
these white pills are only lactose pills which are used as medium or vehicle for medicine.
Actual medicine is the dilution, from which few drops are added into white pills. They are chosen according to the constitution of every person. White pills are used to lessen the bitterness of Homœopathic medicines.

Our medicines are energy. They are prepared by serial dilutions and contain no material substance in them. Hence, no side effects.

You have to keep the medicine on the tongue so that it comes in contact with the nerves. That is the reason why we say not to eat anything half an hour before or after. So that the tongue has nothing else that will interfere with the absorption of the medicine.

Rarely after the homeopathic treatment is given there can be increase in your complaints. There can be two reasons for this. First and the more common reason can be the stopping of pain killers or ointment applications which may have kept your symptoms suppressed for a long time and due to removal of that factor, the complaints will be experienced in its actual intensity. In that case, homeopathic medicine will gradually bring the whole thing under control. Another possibility is that after the homeopathic treatment there is slight and short worsening followed by rapid relief. This initial worsening is often the reaction of our body before the cure occurs and is a very good sign. Another reaction that may be noticed during the course of homeopathic treatment is that your original problems will get better gradually and then some new symptoms may appear. These new problems may indicate that we need to change your medicine and give you something that will cover this new picture and thereby help you in achieving a holistic cure.

During the course of homeopathic treatment or after it has been stopped if something happens in your day today life at mental or physical level to upset the balance created in your system by the homeopathic medicine the original complaint can be felt again. But it is true that with homeopathic treatment, the capacity of the person to handle such upset improved and relapses may not occur.

First and foremost, you need to tell us how you feel in your chief complaint and associated complaint. Here it is very important that while reporting a chief complaint, it is better you also mention the new problems or if you have suffered from the same problem in the past because they indicate that we need to change your medicine/potency. Do mention about your temperament, desires, sleep, dreams and appetite. In mental sphere, we need to know if anything had happened to upset you at home or at your work place, like any quarrel, or some bad news etc. All these symptoms when told in detail, help us to treat you better.

In homeopathy we do not have separate medicine for head, nose, ears, throat, etc. We give one single medicine which affects the patient as a whole and removes all his troubles. There is no medicine for any particular disease but there is medicine for the patient who is suffering from the disease. A single remedy is chosen on the basis of holistic approach which treats different complaints of the same person etc.

For chronic complaints one should report to the doctor only after a month but in any acute conditions/emergency, one should get in touch with the doctor immediately.

We do not advocate the use of Ayurveda and homeopathy together because both are holistic medicine. Therefore, if you take two together, we don’t know how to evaluate your progress. We will not come to know with which system you are better. Same with the case of allopathy. Also these conventional medicines change the symptoms to such an extent that their original presentation of the symptom is lost, making it difficult to gather enough accurate information to prescribe the correct homeopathic remedy. The symptoms are the compass that a homeopath uses to find his way to the right remedy. If you were to take conventional medication to treat symptoms after beginning homeopathic treatment, you could stop the action of the remedy, rendering it ineffective. Most of the acute conditions are handled well with homeopathy but in some exceptional conditions, we do advice the patient to take allopathic treatment.
