ALLERGIC BRONCHIAL ASTHMA MANAGED WITH HOMEOPATHY CORRELATION OF CLINICAL OUTCOMES WITH IGE LEVELS – A CASE REPORT

Abstract

Background: Allergic Bronchial Asthma is a chronic inflammatory airway disorder characterized by bronchial hyper reactivity, wheezing, and recurrent paroxysms of breathlessness, often associated with allergic diathesis_. Long-term dependence on allopathic medications such as Montelukast and Levocetirizine provides temporary relief but does not modify the underlying tendency_.  Homoeopathy, based on the law of similars, offers individualized treatment targeting both acute symptoms and constitutional predisposition

Case Summary: A 27-year-old female from Jaipur presented with recurrent episodes of dyspnoea, spasmodic cough, wheezing, nasal discharge, and suffocative attacks, particularly at midnight, for the last five years. She was dependent on daily Montelukast + Levocetirizine. Case-taking revealed marked anxieties, fear of death during suffocation, chilly thermal state, constipation with ineffectual urging, and profuse perspiration. Detailed analysis pointed towards remedies from the Kali group, with subsequent prescriptions of Kali carbonicum, Kali muriaticum, Aralia Racemosa, and Pothos Foetidus at different stages_. Gradual improvement was observed with complete cessation of allopathic medications and a significant drop in serum IgE levels from 1925 IU/mL to 357.60 IU/mL
