Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I am a 30-year-old male. I never had any skin allergies. Recently, I have been diagnosed with urticaria (burning, itching sensations throughout the body from head to toe). It started out in an acute way but is turning out to be chronic. It has been more than three months, and I am still suffering from it. My blood test is very clean and good. Please find the attached reports. In the past two months, I have been using Bepozic tablets twice or thrice a day on a dermatologist's advice, but all I observed is that the medicine is just soothing me a bit from having any itches but is not fighting the root cause of it. For that reason, I keep getting this burning itching sensation again and again if I stop taking the medicines, and on the other hand, I do not want to run myself on medication for months and years. I researched a bit online and surprisingly found out that allopathy has no perfect cure for it, but homeopathy does. That is the reason I wanted to try homeopathy treatment this time. Here are my following questions:

I read that homeopathy treatment takes a while to cure. So, can I use these Bepozic (antihistamine) tablets twice a day so that I do not have to worry about itching? Is it safe to use homeopathy medicines with using other generic medicines like Paracetamol, Cetirizine, Benadryl, etc? I just want to be sure if I can take them along with homeopathy medicines, just in case I encounter any of those in the near future. How long does this treatment take to cure, from your past experiences or consultations?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and understand your concern.

I have seen your reports (attachment removed to protect patient identity), your thyroid profile is normal, and your serum triglycerides level is a little bit high. For urticaria, in homeopathy, we have the best remedies. So, you need not worry about your problem. Your blood reports are not related to your problem. While using homeopathy, you need not use antihistamine medicines. Homeopathy can solve your problem. Homeopathy is the best and has no side effects, and along with allopathic medicines, you can use homeopathic medicines. Due to urticaria, the eruptions like hives occur. The range of size is from a few millimeters to several inches in diameter. It is caused by an allergic reaction. You may have acute urticaria. Before getting this problem, have you used any medicines for other problems? Some foods also cause urticaria. Some bacteria like streptococcus and Helicobacter pylori also cause urticaria. Symptoms of urticaria are intense itching, burning, and a sense of heat. According to your symptoms, the homeopathic drug ARS ALB 200 CH (Arsenicum album, organic sucrose) is the best remedy. I suggest using 10 pills once for three days only.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

Thanks for your reply.

Yes, I have a habit of eating junk food, but the medicines I used for a couple of months are the regular ones only, like Paracetamol for fever, Benadryl for cough, Naproxen for headache, Levocetirizine for cold, etc. Anyway, according to my understanding, I need to take ten pills at least once a day (for three consecutive days). So, a total of 30 pills. Please let me know when would be a good time to have them, like morning or evening, and before or after lunch? Can I eat immediately after having the medicines, or should I wait for some time after having 10 pills? I am really surprised to hear that the problem that I am having and have spent a lot of money on till now. Can it be cured in three days? Please let me know if I understand it correctly.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

According to homeopathic theory, a single and simple medicine is enough for a cure. Now, what I have prescribed for you is the initial medicine, and there will be a need for a follow-up medicine.

Hope this answered your query.

Kind regards.

Hello doctor,

Thank you for the reply.

I used the medicine for three days, as per your advice, but unfortunately, it did not do any good to me. I took the medicine in the mornings after breakfast with an hour gap before and after. Also, I had to take one or two Bepozic tablets per day to avoid itching. Itching is more on the head part compared to other parts. It occurs mostly on the scalp, ears, face, etc, and sometimes on the remaining parts. I opted for homeopathy treatment as the last resort, but my hopes are dying day by day. I am not sure how many days I had to suffer like this. I do not smoke or drink. I work from home mostly, but I walk 2 kilometers daily. Even I controlled my habit of eating junk food a lot in the past couple of months. Please let me know if you could provide a better solution that will solve my problem once and for all. Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

No need to worry about your problem. It will clear slowly. I have antidotes to your previous medicines. Now onwards you can see the improvement. Please do not feel anxious about your problem. I suggest you use the following:

Apis 200 CH (Apis mellifica) potency ten pills once for five days. Urtica Urence potency 30 daily, ten pills at night for 15 days.

Report back after 15 days.

Kind regards.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

Thank you.

As I said before, the medicine seems to be working. I took the Apis 200 for five days initially and stopped it, as per your suggestion. I am currently taking the Urtica Urens medicine at night. I used to take other antihistamine medicines once a day for the last two weeks, but in the last two days, I have not taken any because I did not have any major itching. Even if I had, it was very much bearable. In fact, this is the first time after three months I have not scratched my body rigorously. This itself is a kind of victory for me. One thing I observed is if I scratched somewhere randomly, it is turning a bit red in color, but it has no itching. It might be common but just felt like saying it to you. Now please let me know how I should proceed with my medication. Let me know if I had to take that antihistamine medicine too, and for how long? I also request you provide me with all details and queries too in a single post itself. Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

According to your answer, the problem seems to be reducing. So. now you need not use antihistamines. But, whenever you feel more itching, you can use one tablet randomly if you feel it is unbearable. Now, the follow-up of homeopathic medicine is Urtica Urens, as usual, daily. And now, Natrum Mur (Natrum Muriaticum) 1M. The dosage is 10 pills once in ten days for about two months.

Please do report me after two months.

Regards.

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

Thanks again.

Unfortunately, the itching started again yesterday night, and I had to take one antihistamine tablet yesterday and one more today evening. I was very happy for three days, but the issue re-bounded again. Not sure what was the cause of this. I had shrimp, eggs, and chicken in the past three days. Not sure if any of those is triggering it, but I think homeopathy medicine should make me immune to that kind of food, at least for a couple of months. That is my understanding of the functionality of homeopathic medicines and is the reason I am trying this too. Anyways the Urtica Urens dosage will be done in the next two days, and I already took one dosage of Natrum Mur 1M. Please guide me on how I can proceed further. Do you think I have to use a more powerful medicine in homeopathy because the issue is getting rebounded? Thanks for your support.

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

Do not worry. The new medicine is powerful, and this will cure you. Those prescribed medicines use for one month accordingly.

Revert in case of queries.

Thank you.
