Unfortunately even today when Homoeopathy has touched several new milestones still there are many Myths & Misconceptions about Homoeopathy in India. Here is a descriptive analysis about such Myths and there Reality.

Myth
Homeopathy is very slow in action.
Reality
In reality, in several acute and chronic illness like fevers, acute sore throats, injuries, burns, insects bite and many other conditions homoeopathy medicines are also giving fast relief.

Myth
Homoeopathy medicines could be useful only in chronic illness.            
Reality
This myth is not even half truth. It helps very efficiently in chronic as well as acute diseases also.

Myth
While taking homoeopathic medicines one have to say bye-bye to Garlic, Onion, Alcohol and smoking.
Reality
It’s totally wrong one should take precautions of those substances/ food articles from which their diseases get aggravated. Here I would like to add that as far as taking Alcohol and Nicotine is concern no any system of medicine suggest to take these harmful things especially during that time when any treatment is on-going homoeopathy is also having no exception.

Myth
Most of the Homoeopathic medicines contain STEROIDS.
Reality
It’s totally wrong and more of propaganda rather than myth spread by a particular group of people for some wasted interest. When any appropriate Homoeopathic medicine acts fast & help acute conditions, people often feel that the physicians are using steroids in the garb of Homoeopathy for quick results. In fact its peoples wrong perception that homoeopathic medicines works on very slow pace and how is it possible. But it’s their half knowledge even homoeopathic medicine can work in fast pace provided they are prescribed by a knowledgeable homoeopathic practitioner. If anyone has any doubt in his or her mind about steroid the sample could be send to laboratory for check-up.
A good Homoeopathic prescription which is geared towards stimulating & helping the body's defense system ( Immune System) & works as an immuno-modulator, gives very satisfying results in acute as well chronic cases. Homoeopathic remedies which are prepared & derived from plant kingdom do have contains certain alkaloids that are as effective as steroids & these are extracted & made into Homoeopathic medicines. These however are not STEROIDS & DO NOT GIVE RISE TO ANY STEROID LIKE SIDE EFFECTS.

Myth

Reality
It’s totally wrong any one can take homoeopathy medicine allow with chemotherapy as well as radio therapy rather it works much batter to reduce severities of the disease and even complication of the chemo and radiotherapy.
The prime role of homoeopathic medicines is helping the patient's immune status and with that promoting & restoring health. Homoeopathic medicines are used to help such patients whose blood counts reduce after chemotherapy & these marvelous pills boost Cancer patient's general conditions.
