Summary

This is an open study of 81 cases of asthma in various paediatric age groups who received only homeopathic treatment for two years. The remedies were prescribed by individualising each case. The study showed that asthmatic attacks due to a variety of causes, like exercise, infection and allergy, could be treated successfully with homeopathy. Exacerbations and the use of nebulizers were reduced, and the asymptomatic period prolonged.
