Former studies on asthma have shown that homoeopathic treatment help in reducing the frequency and intensity of episodes of asthma and weaning of bronchodilator and other allopathic drugs. A male patient aged 21 years attended the outpatient department of Sarada Krishna Homoeopathic Medical College and Hospital Kulasekharam chiefly for the complaint of breathing difficulty and sneezing since childhood which increased for 2 years. He has been taking allopathic medications which help in controlling the severity but his condition remains unchanged. After an unsatisfactory outcome with modern medicine, the Patient turned to homoeopathic treatment.
