Q.  The detractors are saying there is no evidence to show Homoeopathy worked beyond the placebo effect…

A. The placebo effect means a patient gets better only because he believes the treatment will work and in many instances patients gets better of the psychological boost and not because of the medicines they consume. However, homoeopathy offers relief beyond placebo effect.  There have been many clinical trials that prove homeopathy works. In the past 24 years there have been more than 180 controlled and 118 randomized trials into homeopathy. In each case, the researchers concluded that the benefits of homeopathy went far beyond that which could be explained purely by the placebo effect.  A draft report of WHO just a few years back has showed homoeopathy is beneficial and this has sent a panic wave among big pharmaceutical companies who feel threatened by the popularity of homoeopathy.
