This document provides an overview of homeopathy as a medical system. It discusses the history and principles of homeopathy beginning with Hippocrates and Paracelsus. Samuel Hahnemann is credited with formally establishing homeopathy in the late 18th century based on the principles of similia similibus curentur and potentization. The document outlines homeopathy's pharmacology including source of medicines, methods of potentization, and common forms of administration. It also summarizes research that has been conducted on homeopathy, showing evidence of its effectiveness in treating various conditions including respiratory infections and its success in epidemic settings.

Homeopathy
A system of complementary medicine in which ailments are treated by minute doses
of natural substances that in larger amounts would produce symptoms of the
ailment.
Allopathy
The treatment of disease by conventional means, i.e. with drugs having effects
opposite to the symptoms.
Homeopathy is misinterpreted with Herb-o-logy but In fact, they are the opposite of
each other. *

 The specific purpose of the research book is to test the
“paradoxical” theory that homeopathic medicine has
definite therapeutic effects, on the basis of scientific
evidence.
 Results in favor of homeopathic remedies, both in terms of
clinical activity and costs.
In-Vitro Results
 Multi-centre study
 Statistically significant inhibition for the histamine
