  • Abstract:
  • Depression has become very common among the present-day population. The symptoms of depression can be ranging from mild tearful moods, unexplained sadness, morose disposition, disinterest in regular activities to severe disruptive or addictive behaviours even amounting to suicidal tendencies. This case report demonstrates a case of long-standing depression of 10 years cured with a less commonly used homeopathic remedy, lac caprinum. A patient presented with typical symptoms of depression like low moods, anorexia, fatigue, low energy levels along with skin itching and rashes. She was on antipsychotics comprising of dual anti-depressants but still showed a PHQ 9 score of 16 which means major depressive disorder. Based on the patient's symptomatology and constitutional type, a mammal remedy lac Caprinum was indicated for her. As a result, notable improvements in moods as well as physical complaints was observed. These findings suggest that homeopathic treatment has significant role in the treatment of depression and other psychiatric disorders.
