Homeopathy a system of alternative treatment or natural treatment where as allopathy is treated as western treatment or evidence based treatment. Homeopathy treatment aims to cure the root cause of the problem where as allopathy gives only partial cure i.e. it cures only the infection or disease but not the cause.

Homeopathy treatment supports body’s natural response and symptoms of attacking the root cause, whereas allopathy attacks symptoms of healing or body’s natural response. Homeopathy treatments have no side effects as it is made of natural substances but allopathy treatment has some mild side effects like fatigue, constipation, dizziness and others.
