We study man and his relationship to respiratory allergy: Allergic rhinitis is certainly one of the most widespread diseases in the world. We try to demonstrate the efficiency of homeopathic treatment in patients, so common, both in children, young, adults and even in old age. Allergic rhinitis is often confounded with common cold. The allopathic conventional method often considers just their apparent symptoms as itching of the eyes, nose, palate and pharynx, coryza, sneezing and nasal occlusion. In the case of homeopathic therapy, it is important to take into account, that these symptoms may vary in intensity and appearance according to each individual patient. The practical results are excellent for as soon as the patients recover their physical and emotional balance, then the symptoms gradually begin to dissolve. Therefore, achieving a reduction or complete remission of symptoms in a safe, efficient and lasting way. It is observed in all cases, the fundamental importance of the simillimum performance, but also the possibility to employ episodic remedies, together with the constitutional remedy, mainly in crisis but also as part of the treatment, with no apparent harm to the action of it. Our 42-year clinical experience confirms what I will try to demonstrate in this presentation.
