The Homoeopathic Aspects of the Diabetic Case

by

It is interesting to note that when our proving squad at Hahnemann proved posterior pituitary in its 12X. symptoms complained of were quite analogous to an early case of diabetes, and when we consider that the endocrine factor i sugar metabolism is coming more into the fore, this finding is quite interesting.

The above named drugs are simply a brief list of those which should be at least considered in ad diabetic case. As a general rule, the more complications there are, the more they should be considered. For instance, if gangrene is a feature of the case, our drug secale come in, which has a very interesting effect upon carbohydrate metabolism as well as causing generalized constriction and a well-known type of gangrene for which it has been prescribed for many years.

We many in certain cases have clear indications for other of our polychrests which at first sight do not seem to be able to cause diabetes mellitus in the way that we can see that it is produced now. However, if we had clear indications for drugs such as a silica, argentum nitricum, or arsenic, we should not hesitate, as this drug many just turn the balance and alter a complicated metabolism which will result in marked clinical improvement.
