Abstract:
Bronchial Asthma is one of the clinical research
assignments allocated for study to Regional Research
lnstitute for Homoeopathy, New Delhi. The principal aim
of this project is to ascertain efficacy of Homoeopathic
treatment in Bronchial asthma cases. 413 cases that
have been registered under study for Bronchial asthma
at this lnstitute ever since April 1980 are taken up for the
present study. ln this paper, various facts of asthma
observed upon these patients, their constitutions,
personal & family history of allergic disorders and various
aetiological factors have been studied.There are, however, no established specific drugs for Bronchial asthma as the treatment in Homoeopathy is
INDIVIDUAL based; and not DISEASE based, As such a
case of Bronchial asthma is treated as a WHOLE. The
medicine in a particular case is ,so selected that it is
otherwise capable of producing a similar disease picture
in a healthy person; this fact is already ascertained by
careful drug-trials on animals and healthy human beings.
The drugs are given in a diluted and attenuated form, to
arouse the vital curative reaction in sick person. This
process is very much similar to DESENSITISATION.
The principal aim of this study is to evolve a group of
drugs with their reliable indications found to be effective
in relieving the cases of Bronchial asthma.
