The ABC Homeopathy Forum
homeopathy and antibiotics
Hi,I was just prescribed Cipro antibiotic for what may be a bladder or kidney infection.. the doctor was not sure but there was a trace amount of blood in my urine so he prescribed this just to be safe. I am currently taking natrum silicatum (12C) to remedy a past hair loss problem which left my hair very thin.
When I was younger and was taking sulphur for this same problem (it began at that time) I became ill (cold and bronchitis) and had to take azithromycin as an antibiotic.. the homeopathic remedy then seemed to be antidoted and the homeopath said that I should not take antibiotics while on it (though he failed to tell us this beforehand).
Now here I am again in this situation and am just wondering if it's safe to take Cipro while on natrum silicatum or if I should stop the remedy while taking Cipro..? If I do have an infection then I am very hesitant to just not take the antibiotic.. i would not want it to get worse.
Please let me know your thoughts. I am not able to reach my homeopath right now so I am resorting to this forum. Thanks!
