INTRODUCTION
Tauto means Same.
Tautopathy (Tauto = same) is the method of curing
or removing the bad effects of allopathic or conventional drugs by
means of identical potentised drugs. For. e.g., If you are suffering
from the bad effects or side-effects of Penicillin, you can use
potentised Penicillin to remove its side effects. This idea has been
confirmed clinically by large number of homeopaths and studied
scientifically. Studies has shown that the potentised lead and
potentised arsenic have been used to combat the bad effect of such
poisoning respectively. The results have shown that such use of
potentised substances can help remove the symptoms caused by the
toxicity, by enhancing the elimination of the toxin from the tissues.
Tautopathy is not exactly homeopathy but it is pretty close to it.
Tautopathic drugs have following advantages -
1. They can be proved like homeopathic medicines and can be incorporated in homeopathic materia medica.
2. These medicines can be used on the principles of homeopathy too.
3. They can be used to antidote or remove the bad effects of allopathic or conventional drugs.
Long term use of allopathic or conventional drugs
has often been found to work as an obstruction in providing a cure
using the most similar homeopathic medicines. The administration of
tautopathic medicines can help remove such obstructions and can
facilitate a cure. A tautopathic medicines is not just administered on
the basis of history of known drug intake, but there should be
definite guiding symptoms for the selection of a medicine.
As conventional medicine has progressed the chemicals and drugs used
by it have become more stronger. The more stronger a drug, the more
stronger are its side effects. The long term use in chronic diseases
compounds this problem. Patients with chronic disease often come to
homeopaths after taking conventional medicine for many years. By the
time they arrive at our office, it is often difficult to discern which
symptoms of the patient are due to the disease and which are due to
the drugs. There is often a layer of drug-symptoms that needs to be
removed before the 'similimum' can work effectively. The use of
tautopathic medicines can help clear the case in many such cases.
Tautopathy is an enhanced tool for the homeopaths to use in difficult
cases coming to us from the allopathic table.
There is hardly any modern 'wonder-drug' that does not have any serious side-effects. One has to understand that the 'medicines' are not part of body's physiological requirement. The antibiotics, antipyretics, pain-killers, steroids - are all as foreign to the human body - as foreign as any other disease causing agent. The body reacts to the medicines in very much the same fashion as it reacts to the bacteria and viruses. So there is no wonder that the modern wonder-drugs, produce there own set of symptoms (drug-disease) when used for long time. Tautopathic medicines can play a vital role in countering such drug-disease or toxic symptoms produced by conventional drugs.
Preparation of Tautopathic Medicines:
Tautopathic Medicines are prepared by potentising the allopathic or conventional drugs in process of potentization used for homeopathic medicines, i.e., trituration and succussion. Both the decimal and centesimal scales are used.
