ROLE OF HOMOEOPATHY IN COVID-19 MANAGEMENT-A CLINICAL EXPERIENCE

Abstract Coronavirus disease also termed as COVID-19 or SARS-CoV-2 infection has been declared as a global pandemic by the World Health Organization (WHO). The COVID-19 infection has emerged as a global health emergency spreading over 210 countries and territories around the world as there are no specific established treatments or vaccines available to date. In such a crisis, prevention of the further spread of the infection is the best possible containment approach being advocated by WHO and other health agencies. A vast clinical experience does exist for the immune-boosting effect of Homoeopathic medicines and its role in the prevention of viral infection. The Genus Epidemicus has been used during various disease outbreaks for preventing the spread of diseases like Cholera, Chikungunya, Japanese Encephalitis, and Dengue Fever, etc. with good results. Given the clinical success in those severe infectious diseases, Homoeopathy as an adjuvant to the standard of care should be evaluated for the management of COVID-19. The Ministry of Ayurveda, Yoga & Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha and Homoeopathy (AYUSH) have suggested the use of Arsenicum album - 30 for its possible role in preventing COVID-19 infection. Following the same, we had prescribed the Arsenicum album - 30 to our patients, and our clinical experience is shared here. When there is no or very limited evidence is available for the effectiveness of Homoeopathy, this publication is expected to assist the identification of a better treatment approach and guide further research.

..... .... The Health advisory is given by The Ministry of Ayurveda, Yoga & Naturopathy, Unani, Siddha, and Homoeopathy (AYUSH) against coronavirus infection included Homoeopathic

medicine Arsenicum album – 30 as a possible preventive measure for flu-like illness such as

coronavirus infection.[18] Scientific Advisory Board of CCRH confirmed that the same

medicine has been advised for the prevention of Influenza-Like Illness.[19,20,21] It is

noteworthy that the Arsenic album is a common homoeopathic remedy prescribed in the

cases of respiratory infections in day to day practice. Pharmacologically, the Arsenic album

as one of the constituents in a formulation has been shown to act upon HT29 cells and human

macrophages. Also, it showed an inhibitory effect on NF-κB hyperactivity (reduced

expression of reporter gene GFP in transfecting HT29 cells), and inhibition of TNF-α release

in macrophages.[22]

Similar to prevention, Homoeopathic medicines used for flu-like symptoms and have a long-

established, traditional usage over many years such as Gelsemium, Arsenicum, Phosphorus,

and Bryonia, etc. should also be explored as one of the treatment options for the COVID-19

patients. This shall be applied following the basic principles of Homoeopathy as a holistic

therapy in addition to the other standard of care currently advocated for COVID-19

patients.[23

SRPF from Dhule were tested negative for COVID-19 after having worked in Malegaon. 81 SRPF jawan had taken the Homoeopathic prophylactic dose as prescribed by the doctors but 1 did not take the prophylactic hence he was tested positive.

With the rising figures of COVID-19 positive people in Malegaon being an alarming situation, this news about the SRPF jawan is a shining star and a new ray of hope.
