Homeopathy is safe
Because the medically active substances in homeopathic medicines occur in such minute amounts, homeopathic medicines are considered non-toxic with no known side-effects. Homeopathy has proven to be both safe and effective for babies and children alike for over 200 years. Since becoming regulated in the United States in 1938, there have been no reports of adverse effects from homeopathic remedies manufactured according to HPUS standards.
No drug interactions
There are no known drug interaction risks between homeopathic medicines and conventional pharmaceutical drugs. For example, an individual who is taking a conventional prescription blood pressure medication could also take a homeopathic remedy for the common cold without fear of the two medications having a negative side effect. With many OTC’s causing adverse effects on common conditions (e.g. hypertension, diabetes, hyperthyroidism), the absence of drug interactions make homeopathy an ideal choice for pharmacist recommendations of self limiting conditions. |
