Answer by dukefenton
There are no side effects of homeopathic ‘medication’ – but there are no therapeutic effects either. It’s nothing more than a placebo with delusions of grandeur. Homeopathy is an expensive hoax, nothing more.

The actual plant is highly toxic.

Question by ResearchGirl: What is the maximum daily dose of camilia homeopathic for a baby?
I gave my baby boiron camilia homeopathic for teethng. The box says give one dose followed by another every 15 minutes for two more doses. So is three doses the maximum for the day? Or in a couple of hours can she have 3 more doses?

Best answer:

Answer by No Name
Homeopathic “medicine” contains no active ingredients. If it is a liquid it is just water, or sugar water.

Since there is nothing in it, there is no theoretical maximum dose, unless you are concerned about giving your baby sugar water….which you should be.

Answer by Queen Kwa
i use something called “rescue remedy” to help with my anxiety and it’s fantastic! it’s made from lots of different flowers, doesn’t interact with medications, works fast, is really effective, you can take it by itself or put some in a water bottle and sip it whenever you need it. it’s such a great thing to have! even for people without anxiety disorders who are just really stressed or need help getting to sleep, it’s really good. and it’s cheap too.

something else i use is lavender oil, i put some on my temples and the back of my neck or sometimes on my pillow and it’s really relaxing. it always surprises me how just a scent can make people feel relaxed but it really does!

Question by : Why couldn’t big pharmaceutical companies make money on homeopathy if they wanted to?
People who support homeopathy always seem to imply this but I don’t get it.
If there are patents on aspirin, I am pretty sure that big pharma lawyers could figure out how to patent a homeopathic remedy. And I don’t think that cost is a good argument either. It costs billions of dollars and many years to develop a drug, it would be much much cheaper to begin selling a homeopathic remedy.

Answer by tiebuster2
Because they’re too cheap and you can’t patent them! If they can’t charge outragious fees on a patented drug, why would they waste their time and money making pennies on the dollar for the research they’d have to pay for?

Question by michele36: What Homeopathic Remedies should I take?
I get a lot of muscle pains in my neck so I’ve been on muscle relaxers and would like to stop taking them. I would like to try some some homeopathic remedies but I’m not sure what to take and if it’s possible to take too many. I have arthritis in my neck, herniated and bulging discs that press on some nerves and cause arm pain. My neck muscles are always very tensed and painful. Also, I would like to know what the difference is between different remedies. Some answers I’ve read say to take Arnica 200 but where I order from they only have 30X or 30C and I don’t know the differences. If someone could please help answer what remedies are useful, the differences of the # after the remedy and where to order them I would great appreciate it.

Would it not be more wise to treat the problem? Rather than try to reduce the symptoms? When was the last time you visited your neighborhood chiropractor? That is something they deal with daily..

I have a fever and I’m afraid of being at the mercy of streptococcal of sorts. I have a history of being susceptible to its worst conditions. I can’t go to the DR because I’m in a foreign county. I need homeopathy advice, herbal remedies. Can anyone help me?

Best answer:

Answer by Anonymous
I don’t think fever leads to strep throat, I think fever is a result of strep throat.

I’ve read that vervain is used to treat fevers. I’ve never used it but I’m actually going to my health store to get some tomorrow. So maybe see if you can get vervain. It is a plant. I think it comes in liquid and pill form.

So I’m interested in becoming a homeopathic doctor. What would I need to study in order to become one and for how long?

Best answer:

Answer by DanC
I am not aware of any licenses or regulations in the US specifically allowing “homeopathic doctors” to practice. You could, however, become a “naturopathic doctor”, for which there is licensing in many states. Several states will allow a naturopath to be a primary care provider as well. Naturopathy covers homeopathy as well as nutrition, manipulative therapy, herbal remedies, etc.. In total, the education (for naturopathy) takes about six to eight years, depending on the program.
