Scientific Studies Prove the Effectiveness of Homeopathy for ADD / ADHD and Hyperactivity in Children
Frei H, Thurneysen A. “Treatment for Hyperactive Children: Homeopathy and Methylphenidate Compared in a Family Setting.” British Homoeopathic Journal, 2001, 90, 183-188.
114 children attending a paediatric practice where conventional and homeopathic medicines were used, and who were previously diagnosed with ADHD, were given individualised homoeopathic medicines (increasing potencies of the most similar LM remedy). On a parent assessed basis (confirmed by the clinician), if a minimum 50% improvement was not noted within a certain period of time they were placed on Methylphenidate. 75% of the children responded to homoeopathy and 22% required Methylphenidate. 3% of patients did not respond to either regime.
Frei H, Everts R, von Ammon K, et al. “Homeopathic treatment of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder: a randomised, double blind, placebo controlled crossover trial.” Eur J Pediatr. 2005 Dec, 164, 12, 758-67.
83 children diagnosed as suffering from ADHD using DSMIV criteria were treated with individually prescribed homeopathic medicines. Using the Connor’s Global Index scale it was determined that 63 of these children responded to treatment. These children were then randomised to receive either placebo or homeopathic medicines for 6 weeks and at this point were crossed over to receive placebo if they’d been using the homeopathics or visa versa. At the end of this period it was found that homeopathic therapy provided significantly better results than placebo.
Lamont J., “Homoeopathic Treatment of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).” British Homoeopathic Journal, 1997, 86, 196-200.
43 children with ADHD were given either a placebo or an individualised homeopathic medicine, in accordance with a double blind partial crossover dose regime. When the results were compared at the end of the trial, it was found that the homeopathic treatment for ADHD was superior to that using placebo.
Strauss LC. “The Efficacy of a Homeopathic Preparation in the Management of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder.” Biomedical Therapy, 2000, 18, 2, 197- 201.
20 children suffering from ADHD, were given either placebo or a homoeopathic combination (Heel Selenium-Homaccord) and were assessed in accordance with pre and post test conduct and psychosomatic problems, impulsivity and anxiety. The homoeopathic combination provided superior results to those of placebo.
