Homeopathy is an alternative therapeutic method that has been used for many years to treat and prevent asthma and asthma attacks in adults and children. It consists of using diluted and energized substances which act on the symptoms of asthma in such a way as to strengthen the body's defenses and promote healing.
Asthma is a chronic disease that is characterized by bouts of shortness of breath , coughing , and wheezing . It can be serious and even life threatening if not properly treated. Homeopathy can be used in addition to conventional drug treatments to reduce the frequency and intensity of asthma attacks.
There are many homeopathic medicines that can be used to treat asthma and asthma attacks. Among the most commonly used are:
Arsenicum album : This medication is recommended for people with acute asthma with symptoms such as dry coughing spells and nighttime breathing difficulties.
Natrum muriaticum : This medicine is indicated for people suffering from allergic asthma with symptoms such as sneezing, runny nose and cough.
Nux vomica : This medicine is recommended for people suffering from acute asthma with symptoms such as violent coughing spells and breathing difficulties.
It is important to note that homeopathy does not replace conventional drug treatment and that it is important to consult a doctor in the event of asthma symptoms. Indeed, only a doctor is authorized to establish a diagnosis and to prescribe the most appropriate treatment.
In addition to these homeopathic medicines, there are also other measures that can be taken to prevent asthma attacks and improve the quality of life for people with this disease. Among these, we can cite:
Avoid known risk factors such as allergens, cigarette smoke or air pollutants.
Regularly practice appropriate physical activity to strengthen the respiratory muscles
Chamomilla 5 CH , Sambucus nigra 4 CH, Ipeca 4 CH and Belladonna 4 CH: 3 granules in a little water 4 times a day while waiting for the doctor
