We have had reports that some non-homeopaths are recommending the “blanket use” of Arnica in the 200th potency repeatedly before labour. No Homeopathic remedy should be taken in pregnancy without proper professional advice from a qualified Homeopath.

Pregnant women who take the Homeopathic remedy Arnica after the 36th week of their pregnancy may be refused the choice of an epidural during childbirth in some Irish maternity hospitals.

We would advise any pregnant woman using Homeopathic remedies during pregnancy or childbirth to do so under the supervision of a fully qualified, professional Homeopath.

A list of ISH Registered Homeopaths is available on this website under the “Find a Homeopath” option.
