Best Answer

There is no conflict between conventional medicines and homeopathic medicine and indeed both systems of therapy may sometimes be used together to compliment each other. In most cases when starting homeopathic treatment you should remain on your current conventional medicines. This is why it is so important to consult a homeopathic doctor as they will be able to advise you on how to reduce your conventional medicine in a sage way. Yes. Certain drugs such as anti-hypertensives, drugs for cardiac or diabetic disorders need to be continued even with Homeopathic medicines since they are important to life. Others, such as antibiotics if taken for the same complaint that homeopathic treatment is being given, may be discontinued with the advice of the homeopathic physician.

Can cinchona officinalis 6x be taken with high blood pressure medicine?

A homoeopathic remedy like Cinchona can easily be taken together with more mainstream medication. In fact homoeopathic students are taught to treat alongside the already prescribed allopathic medication, taking both. The homoeopathic practitioner will advise the patient that medication like high blood pressure drugs should only be cut back in consultation with the specialist who has prescribed it. Obviously this phasing out starts when the homoeopathic remedy like Cinchona has started the healing process.

Is holistic medicine safe?

Alternative medicine is technically as safe as eating a salad, as that is basically what you are doing in most cases. You are taking pills which give you the natural nutrients found in plants. Apart from being run by people who have nothing to gain, alternative medicine is significantly cheaper than conventional medicine, and does not just treat symptoms. It provides a solution to the root cause of your problem. Acupuncture is generally regarded as safe and effective, but your success generally depends on the experience of the practitioner. It's more dangerous to rely on alternative medicine to solve all of your problems. Just like conventional, you need to work at it just as much as anything else and understand that it might not work for everyone.
