Homeopathic Medicine List - Homeopathy is a recognized form of alternative medicine developed by Samuel Hahnemann in 1796 that is based on the principle of 'like cures like' (similia similibus curentur). This means that a substance causing symptoms in healthy individuals can be used to treat similar symptoms in sick individuals.
Homeopaths treat illnesses using highly diluted medications based on this principle. For instance, the remedy Allium cepa, which is made from the common onion, is prescribed to patients suffering from hay fever, as it can induce similar symptoms like watery eyes and nasal discharge.
