Importância da homeopatia no tratamento paliativo da doença renal crônica: Estágio 4

Le résumé fourni par la source

A bibliographical survey was carried out regarding the use of homeopathy applied to the relief of pain and suffering in animals affected with stage 4 chronic kidney disease. A bibliographic review in books, periodicals, scientific articles and electronic journals that we consider relevant. The history of homeopathy, since its inception, has undergone great contributions, such as Hippocrates, known as “the father of medicine” and Christian Friedrich Samuel Hahnemann, a German physician, who in the 19th century, concretized homeopathy as we know it today. Unlike conventional allopathy, homeopathy proves to be a viable alternative to end and/or minimize the animal's pain. Common in small animal clinics, Chronic Kidney Disease, a pathology characterized by the destruction of nephrons to the point of loss of renal function, with irreversibility of the process and GFR lower than 50%, can be staged based on creatinine concentration parameters. According to the literature consulted, it is clear that the allopathic treatment of choice, despite contributing to the control of clinical signs manifested, is incapable of guaranteeing a cure, nor the irreversibility of the process. Thus, homeopathy presents itself as an alternative for the palliative care of the animal, ensuring the reduction of risks and improvement in the animal's quality of life.
