Can Homeopathic medicines be taken along with allopathic(conventional) medicines?
Yes it is absolutely safe to take homeopathic medicines along with allopathic medicines. In many cases, it is observed that certain patients after continuing allopathic medicines for a long time, with relief in their symptoms become drug dependant. When they give up those medicines abruptly and resort to homoeopathic medicines alone, with the advice of homeopathic physicians, they react adversely resulting in aggravation of their complaints. This happens usually in patients suffering from Diabetes mellitus, Hypertension, Bronchial asthma and Epilepsy, etc. Instead of withdrawing the allopathic medicines suddenly, their doses can be gradually tapered, with the advise of their primary health care practitioner.
