Biochemic Drugs in Pregnancy

The Biochemic System of Medicine is an off shoot of homeopathy. Dr. Wilhelm Schuessler, a German homeopath, developed it. He believed that disease is caused by the deficiency of inorganic salts in the human organism. This deficiency causes a disharmony in the functions of the organic constituents of the cell. He identified 12 such inorganic salts in the human body and after a lot of clinical trials, put forward the Biochemic System of Medicine. Over the years, this system of medicine has proved itself to be a safe and effective form of therapy.

This article is for women who are experiencing the most eventful months in their life. Pregnancy, though a physiological state, can leave a woman with either pleasant experiences, or bitter experiences- if she develops some complications.

Many of my patients have become ecstatic on being told that they were pregnant, especially so when they had been under treatment for an inability to conceive. They feel on top of the world. Unfortunately, this mental state does not last very long because they soon encounter the first bout of morning sickness. This and other such discomforts during pregnancy make them feel miserable, especially in the first twelve and the last eight weeks of pregnancy .

The Biochemic system has a lot to offer to the pregnant woman– not only during pregnancy, but even after delivery. It is not only effective, it is very safe, unlike allopathy, where many medicines are contraindicated during pregnancy as they have a bad effect on the unborn child.
