Homoeopathic Treatment of Nephrolithiasis: A Case Series

The most frequent cause of acute ureteral blockage is urinary stones. The conventional medical system offers several methods for treating urolithiasis, including various synthetic and natural medications and surgery. In this case series, we managed four cases of renal stones (International Classification of Diseases 10th Revision code N20.0) with classical, individualized homoeopathy. Every case was followed up using clinical and ultrasonographic or X-ray evidence and reported as per the HOM-CASE guidelines. The Modified Naranjo Criteria for Homoeopathy (MONARCH) was used to evaluate the cause-attribution of prescription medicines. All four patients made a full recovery, and posttreatment reports revealed that there were no residual calculi. Individualized homoeopathic medicines phosphorus, Lycopodium clavatum, and Thuja occidentalis showed beneficial effects in these cases. Each patient's overall MONARCH score was either +8/13 or +9/13. Individualized homoeopathic treatments were successful in removing kidney stones quickly and without any adverse side effects.
