Patients with Chronic Sinusitis Benefit from Homeopathic Treatment
A recently published study shows that patients with chronic sinusitis benefit from homeopathic treatment.
The results come from a sub-group analysis of patients suffering sinusitis that were part of a large prospective multicentre observational study population carried out over an 8 year period.
Consecutive patients presenting for homeopathic treatment for chronic sinusitis were followed-up for 2 years, complaint severity, health-related quality of life (QoL), and medication use were regularly recorded. Patient-reported health status 8 years post initial treatment was also recorded and patient’s sinusitis symptoms showed sustained improvement after that period.
