Treating Alcoholism with Homeopathy

Alcohol is a behavioral disorder caused by excessive alcohol consumption. This pathology can be treated with homeopathic remedies.

Symptoms and complications of alcohol

Alcohol addiction is an addiction to alcohol that can cause physical and psychological dependence. A subject is alcoholic when his eyes are haggard, if he presents a fixed gaze, a particular behavior, as well as a fairly altered central nervous system. The alcoholic individual may vomit, urinate and be unaware of his or her actions. The subject may experience dizziness and a frequent headache, which can last for several hours after waking up or recovering. Excessive alcohol consumption can be fatal, as vomiting can be inhaled into the lungs due to nervous system dysfunction that should regulate the pharyngeal reflex. In some cases, ingested alcohol can impair respiratory function.

Treatment of alcoholism with homeopathy

Subjects who consume alcohol excessively, especially those who fall into a state of drowsiness but do not present complications, should take Nux vomica. Occasional drinkers can consume Lachesis mutus. The appropriate dose for patients with obvious complications is 5 granules of Lachesis 5 Ch, twice daily. Sepia is indicated for patients who cannot lie on their right side because of the dilation of their liver. The patient who feels some relief when lying on his left side should consume Natrum sulfuris, especially when diarrhea occurs after breakfast. A thick tongue covered with a yellowish coating as well as significant salivation should be treated with Mercurius.

Consult a doctor

It is necessary to consult a doctor when drowsiness is observed. In the event of behavioral disorders such as a tendency to aggression and if the subject makes abnormal movements, he or she must consult a doctor who will prescribe the appropriate treatment.
