Homeopathic medicine and antibiotics?!
Question: hi i had tonisilitis every month for 7 months now. i went to a homeopathic dr and he gave me medicine it has went away for two months but now it is back again. he is in india and i cant get ahold of him. i was supposed to take this medicine once a week til i get my period. I could still take it but i have a prescription for antibiotics i received from my primary dr. My dr said its red but he doesnt see an infection yet. My question is should i take the homeopathic medicine or the antibiotics or take both? Im afraid it could interfere with each other. Any homeopathic practioners out there that can help i would greatly appreciate i have an important decision to make and i dont have much time thank you!

I would take what your comfortable taking. I am a homeopathic practitioner in training, so obviously I personally would take the natural medicine. However if you're suffering badly and your fearful that it will turn into an infection, and you can't get a hold of your natural Dr. I would take the antibiotics. If you feel you have some time though, I would start on a honey regiment (honey is a natural antibiotic) and drink some soothing tea ever hour. Also I would do some eucalyptus breathing therapy and also rub some onto your neck and throat area, then as soon as your natural doctor gets back get into see him right away!
Good luck to you and I hope you get well very soon!!!
What is the homeopathy Treatment? If it is ANYTHING that has the work '' Dr. Frank ''
ANYWHERE on the medicine, forget about that snake oil and go to a REAL Doctor. Do some research about the product you got. That is the best way to go. Good Luck!!
Ask your doctor if there'll be any interaction, but it's unlikely since homeopathic medicine is so diluted. As far as I know, it's about the same as taking a droplet of iodine, diluting it into the Pacific Ocean and then using a single drop of that mixture. There isn't even a molecule of the original substance left so it shouldn't have any effect at all.
That being said, I've used Zi-Cam without realizing it was homeopathic and it almost miraculously shortened a cold to half a day. Then I read the bottle and logically I rejected the idea it could have worked, but that was harder to do since the proof was irrefutable, lol. Not everything fits into our science or is logical. My point is, there would be so little actual medication or chemical in the homeopathic drug that it shouldn't interact with anything but call your doctor just to be safe.
Find yourself a new homeopath or naturopath. Here is a list of the licensed ones in the US: http://www.vitabase.com/tools/nd-locate/...
Generally when you take a homeopathic remedy you do not use standard medicines, drink coffee or use any mint teas as those are liable to antidote the remedy.
There would be no "harm" in taking them both and no homopathic remedy should be taken long-term without monitoring by a professional practitioner.
The honey and tea sound like that is worth a try.
Tonsillitis is an inflammation of the tonsils. It can be either bacterial or viral. Antibiotics will do nothing for a virus, so unless you know your tonsillitis is strep or another bacteria, I'd skip the antibiotics and work on other options. If you have a fever, you could have strep.
Gargle with warm salt water. Take that honey someone else mentioned(raw, unfiltered).
After chronic infections, the tonsils apparently form pits and indentations or infected tissue which make it easier for bacteria/viruses to lodge and do their dirty work. It would be good to find out why you are getting recurrent infections instead of treating the infections as they pop up.
Daily doses of Sambucol (elderberry extract) can help boost immune system.
