Does homeopathic medicine work in RA?

I have been using homeopathic medicine for 2 months and result is not coming.... Doctor said, it will slow.. Please suggest.

  1. You don't say what kind of "doctor" you've seen. Since RA can cause permanent damage if not treated I'd sure consider seeing a rheumatologist if you haven't already. My guess is that the answer to your question is "no" but that's hardly medical advice.

    1. Thanks a lot sir for great time to see this and answer.

      1. Hi gsehealth. Sorry you are having difficulty finding an effective treatment. While some people have certainly reported positive outcomes with homeopathic and alternative treatments, as Sneed said, you may also want to see a rheumatologist (if you haven't already done so) to explore all treatment options. You didn't mention what type of treatment you were pursuing, so thought you might be interested in this article from our editorial team looking at alternative treatments: https://rheumatoidarthritis.net/alternatives-therapies/. Wishing you the best and please keep us posted on how you are doing. Richard (RheumatoidArthritis.net Team)

        1. Its been 7 years. The main problem is that, We had to change to many doctors because medicines are not working. We went to a rheumatologist and but this hospital was very far from our house. We are looking doctor near by area. We found it. We will go.
