D�-lhe, Pierre!
Como bom homem do Crato, foste bem na
bucha!
E mais uma vez a Europa se curva ao Brasil,
e seu imenso potencial inexplorado (ou at� muito
bem explorado)...
Agora, para provocar: Homeopatia funciona?
Sobre a receita alop�tica da sogra, n�o uso h�
anos, duvidaria se n�o tivesse visto (em mim mesmo). N�o � descongestionante,
isso � fato (at� causa uma congest�o), mas parece que quando passa o edema,
teria um efeito rebote ao inverso, e "vem com tudo". E � claro, todo
efeito depende de dose, e fica dif�cil medir daquele jeito, 1/4 de
bucha em 1 litro, etc, e por isso e temer complica��es, n�o
prescrevo a buchinha. Pode parecer s� imagina��o, mas respeito, pois algo de certo deve ter, como poss�vel tratamento de
algum tipo de sinusite cr�nica. Ser�?
E a turma do Maranh�o, apurou algo?
Abra�os

ISSN: 0004-4172 Pa�s de publica��o: GERMANY Idioma: Ger Resumo: In a
controlled randomized double-blind trial carried out by 47 physicians in
private practice with totally 152 patients with sinusitis the therapeutic
success of the following homeopathic drug preparations was investigated: Group
A: combination of luffa operculata D4, kalium bicromicum D4 and cinnabaris D3.
Group B: combination of kalium bicromicum D4 and cinnabaris D3. Group C: luffa
operculata D4. Group D: placebo. Criteria for the therapeutic result were
headache, blocked nasal breathing, trigeminal tenderness, reddening and
swelling of nasal mucosa and postnasal secretion. There was no remarkable
difference in the therapeutic success among the investigated homeopathic drug
combinations nor between the active drugs and placebo. Averaged over all four
groups 81% of the patients with acute sinusitis and 67% of the patients with
chronic sinusitis recovered. In the literature comparable therapeutic results
are reported for antibiotic therapy, decongestant nose drops and for the
drainage of nasal cavities (Au)
WEISER and colleagues, Institut fur Antihomotoxische Medizin und
Grundregulationsforschung, Baden-Baden, Mannhein, Germany compared the
efficacy and tolerance of a homoeopathic nasal spray for hay fever
(seasonal allergic rhinitis) with conventional intranasal cromolyn sodium
therapy.
Methods: 146 patients with hay fever symptoms were recruited into the
randomised, double-blind trial of 42 days. The homoeopathic remedy (Luffa
comp. –Heel trade mark Nasal Spray), 0.14 ml per application, 4 times per day
consisted of a fixed combination comprised of Luffa operculata,
Galphimia glauca, histamine and sulfur. Quality of life, as measured
using the Rhinoconjunctivitis quality of Life Questionnaire (RQLQ) was the
principal outcome measure. The trial medication tolerance was measured using
global assessment, rhinoscopy, recording of adverse events and the use of
vital and laboratory parameters.
Results: The treatment showed quick and
lasting effects. This effect was independent from the medication applied
and produced an almost complete remission of hay fever symptoms. RQLQ global
scores changed significantly during the course of the treatment, demonstrating
therapeutic equivalence between the 2 forms of treatment. There were no
adverse systemic effects, although local adverse events appeared in 3
patients.
Conclusions: The homoeopathic nasal spray is as efficient and well tolerated as
conventional therapy with cromolyn sodium for the treatment of hay
fever.
