Hyperactivity In Children

Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

No doubt that psychotropic drugs present severe side effects – these dangerous drugs should be banished from family pediatrics and only reserved for some psychiatric patients under specialist care. Chemical control is a straitjacket to contain expressing energy. A child has a huge potential, both physically and mentally, to adapt to environmental stresses. Always keep that in mind. A hyperactive child is a perfect field action for homeopathic remedies, as they act fast and without any side effects and will permit a progressive severing from hard drugs.

ADHD is a neurobiological disorder with symptoms to note all along with the medical consultation. Many children present nervous pathologies similar to homeopathic remedies, giving a solid base to build the prescription. The treatment will consider day and night behavior and might associate several nictemeral remedies.

In some neuro-psychiatric cases, the main clew lies in the General symptoms: temperature, pain, sensations, appetite, aversions, desires, thirst, sweat, sleep, dreams, sexuality, etc. Modalities are a safe lighthouse when present in at least 3 organs with General modalities: periodicity, heat, cold, consolation, distraction, etc. Local symptoms presenting a General modality are to be considered as General symptoms: diarrhea from milk, periodical hay fever, palpitations < heat and > fresh open air, twitching changing place, asthma by itself, etc.
