Utility of Sabadilla officinalis in treating cases of allergic rhinitis in children: A case series
Abhinav Kumar Saxena, Tarashi Sharma and Itti Mishra
Allergic Rhinitis (AR) is a prevalent chronic condition in children, characterized by sneezing, nasal congestion, rhinorrhoea, and ocular symptoms. While conventional treatment primarily offers symptomatic relief, homoeopathy provides a personalized and potentially curative approach with minimal side effects. This case series aimed to evaluate the clinical efficacy of Sabadilla officinalis, prescribed homoeopathically, in paediatric cases of allergic rhinitis. Three children diagnosed with allergic rhinitis were assessed based on clinical symptomatology, totality of symptoms, and miasmatic understanding. Sabadilla officinalis was administered in individualized potencies, and patients were monitored across multiple follow-ups using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) to track symptom severity. All three cases demonstrated significant symptomatic improvement, with progressive reduction in VAS scores and no adverse effects reported. Key symptoms such as sneezing, nasal discharge, and ocular irritation subsided markedly, alongside notable improvements in general well-being, appetite, and sleep. The findings suggest that Sabadilla officinalis is a promising, safe, and effective homoeopathic remedy for managing allergic rhinitis in children. Its individualized application may enhance quality of life and reduce reliance on conventional medications.
