Abstract

Chronic pancreatitis is a progressive inflammatory disorder that leads to irreversible destruction of exocrine and endocrine pancreatic parenchyma caused by atrophy and/ or replacement with fibrotic tissue. Functional consequences include severe abdominal pain, diabetes mellitus, and malabsorption. Homoeopathy is undoubtedly one of the most sought-after therapies, primarily due to the unsatisfactory side effects of conventional medicinal treatments. Here is a case of Chronic Pancreatitis from our OPD, treated for three months with individualized homoeopathic medicines. After detailed case taking, physical examination and analysis, IRIS VERSICOLOR was prescribed in 30th potency based on the totality of symptoms. There was noticeably, a gradual improvement in the signs and symptoms and the general well-being. Lab reports show marked improvement in the case which is used to measure the disease activity in the past 2 months. Individualised homoeopathic medicines prescribed based on homoeopathic principles had reduced the severity of the disease significantly. The post-treatment outcome measure provides documentary evidence that homoeopathic medicines are effective in managing Chronic pancreatitis by reducing the severity of the suffering and improving the quality of life of the patient over 2 months.
