Homeopathic drugs provide complementary and alternative treatment options for general
practitioners and specialists in daily practice. In general, homeopathic drugs are
available to treat both acute and chronic diseases.
Antoine Demonceaux, homeopath physician
"Homeopathy provides incomparable treatment possibilities.”
“In a great many areas, without homeopathy, I wouldn’t have anything to propose—except
for overly aggressive or ineffective treatments. Examples? Chronic upper respiratory
infections in the child, anxiety, emotional, depressive disorders, or even the care
of deficiencies or imbalances in the diathesis (functional dysthyroidism). In all
of these cases, homeopathy provides incomparable treatment possibilities. As a homeopath
physician, my approach to the patient differs greatly: It is based on the wholeness
of the individual.
It’s not only a question of time. It’s both a question of spirit and methodology.
Through thorough questioning, an attempt is made to discern everything around the
symptom to analyze what may have been the triggering cause.
The assessment of homeopathy involves the service that the patient receives. I can
attest to spectacular results not only in the treatment of the disease (chronic
upper respiratory infections in the child, recurrent disorders such as rhinopharyngitis),
but also in the quality of life for the patient: ease of treatment, absence of adverse
reactions, etc. Not to mention the impact on public health: by facilitating withdrawal
from psychotropes (tranquillizers and antidepressants) and by reducing the dosage
of heavy allopathic treatments while increasing their efficacy (hypertension and
asthma). I feel that homeopathy renders service both to the patient and society
through the savings made.”

Gildas Le Roux, pharmacist
"Homeopathy often has an immediate efficacy, without any harmful effects.”
“I have to answer questions raised by my clients every day. They ask for advice
on the most varied subjects, ranging from the most benign to the most serious. I
am especially vigilant with fragile patients: pregnant women (particularly those
at the beginning of their pregnancy), children and people with serious diseases
undergoing several treatments. For these clients, I often recommend homeopathy,
with the wish to avoid doubling the contraindications and risks. Take the case of
insomnia in a very young child, or even a behavior disorder. Heavy chemistry or
syrups that literally overwhelm the child are out of the question. It is also difficult
to consider an interview with the child.
However, homeopathy often has immediate efficacy, without any harmful side effects.
The same is true for a patient that suffers from congestive heart failure, combined
with diabetes and/or high blood pressure. If this patient comes to me for a cold,
a great many allopathic products are contraindicated in his state. Homeopathy or
phytotherapy provides results without any risks for the patient. Out of 100 percent
of all disorders, I consider that only 10 percent fall within the privileged field
of allopathy, while 10 percent belong to homeopathy and the remaining 80 percent
to the choice of the doctor and his patient.”
