Are homeopathic remedies effective in treating rheumatoid arthritis?
Homeopathic medicines — again, another complimentary medicine — may have their role, but are really untested. Because of that, that’s why I think doing more studies to see how effective they are will be very helpful for the future of whether we will be implementing them. Many patients take them — many patients don’t trust a lot of the traditional medications that we have — especially with Vioxx being pulled from the market, if they were taking that — and they’re kind of going towards alternative medicines.
