Homeopathy is the safest and most efficient for any kind of fever. The remedies do not suppress the fever but let the body express it more efficiently thereby reducing the recovery time. The invading organism is immaterial for homeopathy because the remedy strengthens the defenses in general.
Though the remedies differ depending on the symptoms and the type of fever, some commonly used remedies are:
Belladona: Sudden high fever with redness of the face and eyes. Burning hot with absent thirst but cold feet. Superficial blood vessels distended.
Aconite: Sudden onset fever after exposure to cold air (or damp air). Icy cold sweat and coldness of the face. Excessive thirst and restlessness. Chilly if uncovered. Sweat relieves all symptoms.
Rhus-tox: Intermittent chills with dry cough and extreme restlessness. Usually aggravated by cold and damp but better by heat. Maybe accompanied by loose motions.
Gelsemium: Wants to be held because he shakes so much. Extreme fatigue. Pulse is slow, soft. Muscular aches. All symptoms accompanied by NO THIRST
Baptisia: Chills with rheumatic pains and soreness all over (bones feel broken). Heat all over, with chills around 11 am in the morning.
Tincture: Echinacea tincture is a natural antibiotic. 5-6 drops in a quarter glass of water 3 times a day would help reduce infection.
Note: Always consult a homeopathic doctor and avoid self medication.
