Osteogenesis Imperfecta-Homeopathic Management by Dr Biju G Nair

Despite Western attack, homeopathy market grows


NEW DELHI: Western countries like Britain may persist with their scathing attacks on homeopathy, calling it unscientific and for which dozens ofsystematic reviews have failed to produce convincing evidence of effectiveness. Despite the carping critics, homeopathy, which is around 250 years old, continues to be tremendously popular.

A study has said Indian homeopathy treatment market is likely to grow 30% annually and pegged at Rs 4,600 crore in the next few years. Globally, the homeopathy market is estimated at Rs 26,300 crore, with France being the largest contributor.

Last year, the size of domestic homeopathy market was around Rs 2,758 crore, according to a study by Associated Chambers of Commerce and Industry of India (ASSOCHAM). Union health ministry officials said over 100 million Indians depend solely on homeopathy. This figure is likely to exceed 16 crore in the next three years. India has over five lakh registered homeopaths and around 20,000 more are being added every year. There are 185 homoeopathic colleges, which offer 33 PG courses. Besides, there are 11,000 homoeopathic hospital beds.

D S Rawat, secretary general of ASSOCHAM, pointed out to a practical problem. Homeopathic medicines are hardly available in 15-25 outlets in a city as compared to the reach of allopathic drugs. But abroad, the situation is different. Though there are very few practitioners of homeopathy, the medicines are well distributed. This explains a big market across France, the UK and the US.

In the UK, the homeopathy market is pegged at 46 million pounds by 2012. World Health Organiation says homeopathy is practiced in 66 countries and treatment is individualized.
