If superficial eczema is suppressed by topical cortisone, it may shift to a deeper tissue such as the lungs, and asthma may occur. It is well known in practice that in patients where both co-exist, the eczema gets worse when the asthma gets better, or reversed. In a patient with asthma, the development of eczema is seen as a regressive vicariation, and is welcomed rather than suppressed. Suppression will result in progressive vicariation to deeper tissues and into phases towards the right of the biological division, such as the impregnation phase (asthma). Suppression of disease on the skin may also vicariate to other tissues like the gastric mucosa and may lead to development of gastritis or ulcers as well. In Homotoxicology, an attempt is always made to regulate (get the body to balance physiologically), rather than to suppress the symptom. The homotoxicological approach is depicted in Figures 4 and 7 and employs the three pronged approach of symptomatic support, not suppression. Treating the allergic terrain is achieved by supporting the detoxifying organs, especially the liver and the matrix, as well as immune-regulation (via the down-regulation of inflammatory mediators) and the induction of TH3 regulatory cells. The symptomatic treatment is different for the different allergic diseases, but the detoxification and the regulation of the allergic response is the same. eczema: Eczema is a difficult condition to treat and is often treated with topical steroids which, from a homotoxicological perspective, may result in deeper disease such as asthma (Figure 5). Eczema may present with a wide variety of clinical pictures, and according to the drug pictures of the various homeopathic constituents in the homotoxicological remedies, one can choose a specific product for each type (Figure 6-7). The liver and skin has a special relationship as they have the same detoxification mechanisms. Histamine is broken down by the P450 system active in both tissues, and if the liver is overloaded, the histamine can be active in the skin as well. Liver drainage is very important in all skin diseases. allergic rhinitis: This debilitating condition can be treated by biological medicine, and typically, the patient is less allergic every new season, i.e. each allergic season is better than the previous one, even if one treats only during the allergy season. The regulatory treatment will have a longer and accumulative effect. In seasonal allergies, treatment should be started at least six weeks before onset of the allergy season. asthma: The six-phase Table - allergies and applicaTion of Therapy (abridged) Bronchial asthma has become the most common cause for hospitalization of children in the United States. In regards to asthma, treatment should be aimed at all three components leading to the obstruction in the airways: bronchospasm, mucous plugs and inflammation (Figure 7). In Homotoxicology, Tartephedreel ® and Engystol ® are aimed at the bronchospasm, while Traumeel treats the inflammation. Bronchalis-Heel ® treats the mucous plugs and can be left out if the patient does not have a lot of sticky phlegm. In conventional treatment, the bronchodilators will treat the bronchospasm, but the corticosteroid will treat the late response (inflammation). This is why cortisone will not give immediate relief in asthma, but a bronchodilator will. This is also the reason to wean a patient off the bronchodilator first. Weaning of patients off conventional therapy is a slow process and may take up to a year. Weaning should only be attempted after the simultaneous treatment with the conventional and the Homotoxicological therapy continues for awhile, as some regulation must be possible before the conventional support is withdrawn. A possible schedule is proposed in Figure 3, but it is important to note that the response may differ from patient to patient. The clinical picture, as well as the peak expiratory flow rate, must be monitored closely, and the treatment adjusted. The patient may need to stay on conventional treatment longer.

It is a phase-by-phase arrangement of disorders with no direct relationship between them. No causal pathogenetic link between disorders can be inferred. The structure of the table makes it suitable for developing a prediction system giving a better assessment of the possibilities for a vicariation effect. © 2000 by Biologische Heilmittel Heel GmbH. biological division Allergy Treating the allergic terrain Detoxification and drainage • Immunomodulation • Stimulating tissue metabolism • Fig. 4: Homotoxicological approach to allergy.
