Classical Homeopathic Medicine - 2 of 5

@mznd72 Actually death rates for pneumonia are not that good.

Without treatment, death rate: 30%
With antibiotic treatment, death rate: 18%
With homeopathic treatment, death rate: <3%

Sciencedaily reports: Mortality Rate Is Twice As High In Patients With Pneumonia Caused By Highly Resistant Bacteria

I have colleagues who have gone to see Banerji's work. They were impressed. The NIH is allocating funds to study his work.

Thank you so much for the information. I am very pleased to hear more about Banerji. It means a lot to me personally given my family history and also in terms of the good that can be done for so many others.

you just keep watching charmed online

No, homeopathy does nothing beyond a placebo.
All scientific evidence tells us that.

So let me get this right. Even though pneumonia is a serious condition and that antibiotics are 95+% effective, you still choose to instead reach for a homeopathic placebo?
You're sounding like a quack again... And again, as I pointed out before, like a madmen, and you put people's lives in danger.

Any results you saw was the immune system fixing its body - NOT any homeopathic water.

Based on your response you have either very little or no medical training. Bacterial double pneumonia in a 3 year old doesn't resolve with wishful thinking or placebo. And if you think a 3 year old knows what a placebo is...:) If placebo were all it was then patients would not experience an aggravation of their symptoms from the initial dose, which happens sometimes, and sometimes I give the wrong remedy and guess what, nothing happens, even when I am convinced I have selected the right medicine

A sense of entitlement and a holier than thou attitude does not work with me. I'm perfectly capable of making logical sense of the information that's available.

You didn't answer my question. Are you choosing to use a homeopathic remedy over antibiotics to treat pneumonia?

I apologize if you felt that way, i am not "holier than thou". I am just stating a point of fact, wishful thinking and placebo will not alter the course of this type of disease process in a 3 year old. And yes, I have and will continue to use homeopathy over antibiotics for my patients who choose it, because in the hands of a skilled physician I have seen them to be as effective and in many cases more effective. Just my humble opinion based on my 10 years of medical experience.

So, you still haven't actually answered the full question:

"when you diagnose a patient with pneumonia, will you prescribe a homeopathic remedy over antibiotics"?
