The first patients only turned to homeopathy as a last resort, because allopathy had not provided them with answers, recalls Dr. Bernard Chemouny, a homeopathic general practitioner. These were therefore chronic cases which required a little time to be relieved. This is how the false idea of slow medicine was born. In fact, acute illnesses (bronchitis, tracheitis, sinusitis, ear infection, tonsillitis, flu, stomach ache, diarrhea, etc.) are relieved as quickly as with conventional treatment. “
React at the first symptoms
Patients can attest to this: the granules can make a headache or toothache disappear within minutes, and lower the fever as quickly as Doliprane®! Such rapid success for Aesculus composed: “It dissipates my nocturnal cramps in a few minutes”, testifies Colette, 68 years old. “Try Apis on edema,” adds Dr Jacques Boulet, a homeopathic general practitioner, “and you will see if it does not regress as quickly as it appeared!” “
This action will be all the more spectacular if one reacts immediately, as soon as the disorders appear, by not hesitating to repeat the catches at the beginning (5 granules every hour or every two hours until improvement).
Do not insist if the homeopathic treatment does not work
Thus, Allium cepa (runny nose) and Nux vomica (sneezing) can sweep away an onset of colds, Capsicum and Ferrum phosphoricum stop ear infections within a few hours. “If this is not the case, it is because we have not found the right medicine”, warns Dr Gwenaël Greppo, homeopathic general practitioner. We can then try a second try, but no more; it becomes prudent to consult.
Faced with angina that does not improve quickly, for example, it is necessary for a doctor to check whether it is not a bacterial disease (beta-hemolytic streptococcus) which may cause heart complications and rheumatologic, and requiring the taking ofantibiotics.
