SCOPE OF HOMOEOPATHY IN ALLERGIC DISORDERS

Homoeopathy offers a natural and holistic approach in the management of allergic diseases. It aims to treat the root cause by strengthening the immune system rather than suppressing symptoms.

Homoeopathy helps to:

• Reduce frequency and severity of allergic attacks

• Improve immune response

• Decrease dependence on steroids and antihistamines

• Provide long-term relief

• Improve overall health and resistance

It is safe for children and suitable for long-term use when prescribed by a qualified homoeopathic doctor.
