Allopathy

Allopathy is one of the main treatment methods used in traditional medicine. The term was coined in the 19th century and is used to describe an approach to treatment based on the use of drugs derived from plants, minerals or animals.

Allopathy arose in contrast to homeopathy, which used methods of treatment based on the use of natural remedies. Allopathy and homeopathy have different working principles, which can lead to different results.

In allopathy, drugs are usually prescribed in large doses to achieve faster results. This may lead to side effects such as allergic reactions or overdose. In addition, allopathy may not take into account the individual characteristics of the patient, which can lead to ineffective treatment.

Homeopathy, on the other hand, uses very small doses of drugs that are mixed with inert substances such as sugar or water. Homeopathic medicines are prepared according to the principles of similarity, which means they must be similar to the symptoms they treat. This treatment method can be more effective than allopathy as it takes into account the individual characteristics of each patient.

Thus, allopathy and homeopathy are two different approaches to treatment, each with its own advantages and disadvantages. The choice of treatment method depends on the individual needs and preferences of the patient, as well as the qualifications of the doctor.

2. A number of drugs give positive results only with long-term use in high doses. Otherwise, they not only have the opposite effect (stimulate the activity of the infectious agent), but also significantly aggravate the pathological process, transferring it from a latent to an active state. 3. To stop the disease, it is necessary to use drugs from different groups. With correct differential diagnosis, etiotropic, structural and etiotropic-structural drugs are prescribed. 4. A large number of substances are synthesized directly from herbal preparations due to the limited practice of using these preparations within limited limits. 5. A drug from the alkylsulfanilide group, aminophylline reflectogen, which has a doping-like effect on the cardiovascular system, is contraindicated in patients with coronary artery disease, hypertension, and infectious diseases of a bacterial nature.
