What is the basis of
Homoeopathy? |
| Dr
Vishpala |
Homoeopathy works on the
principle of SIMILIA SIMILIBUS CURENTUR, That is LIKE CURES LIKE. If a certain drug or
substance is given to a normal person, it will produce some complaints...and when the same
symptoms appear in a patient, the same drug will cure it. Is it clear? |
| Manisha |
I used to think homoeopathy
is only for long term illnesses like high BP. |
| Dr
Vishpala |
Manisha You are wrong
Homoeopathy is the BEST for acute illnesses provided a detailed history is taken and right
remedy given. |
| Suniti |
Why do homeopaths ask so
many, and at times silly questions? |
| Dr
Vishpala |
Silly! Han... For a
Homoeopath to prescribe correctly lot of details are wanted. We must know the person well
enough to understand why the disease has occured. You see we have over 2000 different
drugs and for us to pick up the right one. What sounds silly to you are actually very
important facts for us we must know our patient/ person well enough |
| Dr
Vishpala |
Have I made myself clear,
Suniti? |
| Manisha |
All Homoeopathic medicines
look alike. What is the difference? |
| Dr
Vishpala |
All drugs looking alike is
not correct. Actually what you see are the pills or the vehicle in which remedies are
given. Homoeopathic medicines are made in alcohol and are in a clear solution. Hence this
feeling of all drugs being same. |
| Suniti |
Nowadays Homoeopathy is more
expensive than Allopathy. Why? |
| Dr
Vishpala |
The reason is that a
Homoeopath has to spend almost 2-3 hours with a patient.to get full history. You will
agree that we must be compensated for the time spent and care given. |
| Manisha |
Can people of all age groups
take it? |
| Dr
Vishpala |
Yes people of all ages can
take Homoeopathy. It is best for age groups where you are worried of side effects of
drugs. |
| Manisha |
Can I take them if I am
pregnant/nursing? |
| Dr
Vishpala |
Yes. You can take even if
you are pregnant or nursing. We have some of the best results for pregnancy vomiting |
| Manisha |
Can I take allopathic drugs
along with homoeopathy or I must avoid them? |
| Dr
Vishpala |
Most of allopathic drugs can
be taken. You cannot take CORTISONE or MORPHINE |
| Manisha |
I have heard that you have
to avoid onions if you are on homeopathy. Is it true?Why? |
| Dr
Vishpala |
That is a myth. Strong smell
of Onion should be avoided. Cooked onions are allowed |
| Manisha |
Why? |
| Dr
Vishpala |
Homoeopathic medicines are
sensitive and very strong smells like onion, garlic and even perfumes destroy the efficacy
of drugs but after the smell is gone then there is no problems |
| Sangee |
Can homeopathy medicines be
given for fever or cough and cold. How soon does it effect? |
| Dr
Vishpala |
Homoeo drugs take effect the
moment they touch your tongue. It is that FAST |
| Manisha |
Can homoeopathy help me to
lose weight without diet and exercise? |
| Dr
Vishpala |
Manisha, you want miracles
NO it can not make you lose weight without diet and exercise but it can make you healthier
and prettier |
| Sneha |
Does homeopathy cause any
side effects |
| Dr
Vishpala |
Yes, any medicine that is
powerful enough to heal will definitely cause side. effects if taken injudiciously or with
too much doses. But when the medicines are stopped the bad effects go away, good effect
continuing |
| Sneha |
Is there any homeopathic
cure for excessive white discharge? |
| Dr
Vishpala |
Definitely Sneha. Proper
history and examination will be required before prescribing You must contact a GOOD
Homoeopath |
| Sneha |
Why does homeopathy cure
very slowly |
| Dr
Vishpala |
Homoepathy is NOT slow at
all. It is as fast or faster than any other medical science for acute complaints like
loose motions, fever etc but the myth that it is slow is because we continue medicine for
a long time. This is to build up your resistance power so that you do not fall sick often. |
| Renuka |
Do Homoeopathic remedies
give allergy? |
| Dr
Vishpala |
Renuka, Homoeopathic
medicines are from natural products, so allergy is not very likely. But sometimes if the
dose is strong or repeated too often unwanted effects may occur. |
