Treating Diarrhoea with Homeopathy: A Holistic Approach

  • Unique Paper ID: 184119
  • PageNo: 147-150
  • Abstract:
  • Diarrhoea is a common yet potentially serious condition, marked by frequent, watery bowel movements and often accompanied by dehydration and weakness. In India and many other developing countries, it continues to pose a significant public health burden, especially among children. Conventional medical interventions primarily focus on rehydration and symptomatic relief, but limitations such as recurrence, side effects, and microbial resistance have encouraged interest in complementary therapies. Homeopathy offers a holistic, patient-specific approach, addressing not only the physical symptoms but also the underlying emotional and causative factors. Remedies like Arsenicum album, Podophyllum, and Aloe socotrina have shown promising results in both acute and chronic cases. This paper explores the pathophysiology, aetiology, and clinical features of diarrhea, while emphasizing the therapeutic potential of homeopathic medicine. Supported by clinical experience and selected studies, this review advocates for greater integration of homeopathy in the management of diarrhea, particularly in primary care and paediatric settings in India.
