Article Synopsis
  • This study explored how homeopathic remedies (RT) at different concentrations (6C, 30C, and 200C) can enhance the immune system of BALB/c mice that were weakened by the anticancer drug cyclophosphamide (CPM).
  • The administration of CPM caused significant deficiencies in key blood cell levels and compromised immune organs, while RT treatment, especially at 200C, significantly improved these metrics and restored immune function.
  • The research indicates that RT could potentially be beneficial as an immunostimulant therapy, but more studies in other immunocompromised contexts are necessary before considering application in human clinical trials.
