ABSTRACT
Homeopathy, a complementary medicine system, has faced controversy for over 200 years, particularly regarding the efficacy of its remedies and the principle of similia. Despite evidence from human clinical trials supporting the effectiveness of homeopathic medicines, the scientific community often attributes success to placebo effects. This in vitro study investigates the anti-inflammatory properties of Aconitum napellus and Rhus Toxicodendron using the Human Red Blood Cell (HRBC) membrane stabilization assay. Results showed significant anti-inflammatory effects, with potencies 3X, 12X, and 6C demonstrating enhanced HRBC membrane stabilization and reduced hemolysis, particularly Aconitum napellus 12X and Rhus Toxicodendron 3X.
