New Pharmacy Des Garrigues Home Our team Specialties News Contact Useful numbers ALLOPATHY Name of Classical medicine. The Random House Dictionary of the English Language defines allopathy as "the way of treating disease by the use of agents which produce effects different from those of the disease being treated". In combination with healthy living conditions, it is one of the main factors in increasing life expectancy. It increasingly uses synthetic molecules developed by the pharmaceutical industry. Phytotherapy and oligotherapy are also part of it. Today allopathy is the official therapy, practiced in hospitals and taught during university studies. HOMEOPATHY Homeopathy is a branch of medical therapy. This is a therapeutic method based on the prescription of drugs derived from the pharmacological principle of similarity, generally used in low or infinitesimal doses. The principle of similars as a starting point Already formulated by Hippocrates, the principle of similars establishes a link between the therapeutic action of a drug substance and its toxicological power. It consists in giving a patient a medicinal substance capable, in high doses, of provoking in healthy humans, by intoxication, a set of symptoms similar to those he presents in his disease. The infinitesimal: a scientific challenge Applying the principle of similitude, homeopathy uses the therapeutic effects of substances by reducing their toxicity by the use of very small doses up to the so-called "infinitesimal" level. Experience shows that, despite the very high dilution of active substance, the therapeutic effect remains. Even if advances are made every day, the state of science does not yet allow to explain the mode of action of infinitesimal dilutions. The homeopathic approach Homeopathy is a scientific and human therapeutic method, open as much to scientific and technical progress as to listening and observing the sick person. The choice of a homeopathic medicine requires much more individualization than that of an allopathic treatment. Once the diagnosis of the disease is made, once the choice of homeopathy as a therapy has been specified, it remains for the doctor to find the medication (s) corresponding specifically to his patient in this disease. Each person will have "his" flu, "his" sore throat, "his" eczema, that is to say, he will develop symptoms and conditions which will be personal to him and whose taking into account will guide the doctor on. the choice of this or that homeopathic medicine. PHYTOTHERAPY Herbal medicine is medicine that uses plants (or the "active part" of these plants) with therapeutic properties. The use of therapeutic plants dates back to antiquity and may even be long before, but nowadays, plants are no longer harvested in the wild, both for the survival of wild species and for the precise choice of l botanical species richest in active ingredients. Once the plants have been picked, the active ingredients are extracted by different methods. The extracts can then be administered in the form of capsules, infusions or extracts. Examples of different methods of preparing plants: Maceration Maceration is the operation of letting plants macerate in lukewarm water. Depending on the type of plant, the maceration period is 12 hours to 15 days. Infusion The principle of infusion is to pour boiling water over the crumbled plants. The infusion should be left to stand for 10 to 15 minutes before drinking it. Decoction The plants in crumbs are brought to a boil for 5 to 10 minutes, then allowed to cool to a temperature which allows the decoction to be drunk. The decoction is filtered before being drunk. Mother tincture The mother tincture is obtained by maceration of the powder of the dried plant in alcohol at 40 °, 60 ° or 80 °, with special equipment. Total powder The total powder is obtained by cryo-grinding, that is to say by spraying the active part of the dry plant and cold grinding under liquid nitrogen, at -196 ° C. The total powder is packaged in capsules. Extracts The extracts are thicker than the tincture. The extracts are obtained by treating the crushed plant with water, alcohol or ether. Dry extracts are extracts from which almost all of the water has been evaporated and which have then been reduced to powder.
