Remedies for Diabetes A Few Tips & Notes
NATIONAL JOURNAL OF HOMOEOPATHY 1998 May / Jun VOL VII NO 3.
Dr B D Patel
Nat-mur may be given top preference as it can stop sugar in the urine. If Nat-mur is the ground remedy or the temperament remedy, use its satellite remedies eg syzygium, etc.
Glycerine 200 may remove sugar from blood too fast. Therefore use a drainage remedy or a temperament remedy eg. Nat-mur one dose and after 10 days give Glycerine 200 one dose. In diabetics of Phos-acid type, generally follow-up with Fluoric-acid.
Do not use Sulphur high in diabetes as serious or dangerous troubles like abscesses, furuncles, anthrax, etc may set in. It is advisable to use Psorinum instead of Sulphur.
Ars-alb can be indicated either alone or alternated with Aconite or other indicated remedies (Morgan).
Hampel obtained many cures with Merc-sol, Aco, Ars-alb in various potencies. Ars-alb works wonderfully well in the initial stages but needs a deep acting remedy later.
Fluoric-acid completes the cure after favourable action of several remedies eg. After Secale in gangrene, etc.
Dr Clarke recommends Uran-nit, Apoc, Kali-nit, Scilla in case of Diabetes Insipidus; Uran-nit,Op for Diabetes Mel; Iris-v, Panccreat, Phos, and chiefly Nat-sul, Phos-ac, Syzg-jam for Diabetic Pancreatic.
Dr Ghose considers Cephlandra-indica as a grand remedy in Diabetes Mellitus.
Dr Bernoville recommends Ars-alb as a ground remedy (which removes sugar in urine quickly) Insulin 30 intercurrent remedy and Amm-iod, Cephlandra-ind, Syzg-jam as other drugs for the condition.
As usual, the causative factor - the triggering agent, if any, eg. A mental shock may first need Ignatia or Op or Arnica for an injury, after which the diabetic remedy or the indicated remedy will act better.
