BANGALORE: The Rajiv Gandhi Institute for Chest Diseases (RGICD) on Tuesday started using homeopathy for treating people with the H1N1 virus.
The move comes in the backdrop of 21 more people in the state testing positive for swine flu, with 15 of them from Bangalore and three each from Belgaum and Davangere.
Of the 21 cases, 11 were of category A, six of category B and four of category C.
The first day of the new initiative saw more than 300 people with mild symptoms of the disease being screened at the homeopathy counter at RGICD by six doctors of the Government Homeopathy Medical College (GHMC).?Homeopathic medicine has a history spanning more than 300 years. Based on the core principle that similar cures similar, very dilute solutions are administered to cure the diseases and H1N1 patients are getting relief from our medicines. ?The diluted globules help them improve their immunity,? Dr Dassappa of GHMC told Express.?The integration of allopathy and homeopathy will not only cure the patient but also help strengthen the immunity level to fight the virus,? Dr Sahshidhar Buggi, medical superintendent, RGCID said.
