  • ApresentaçãoPresentation
    The homeopathic medicine is manufactured with substances extracted from the vegetable, animal and mineral kingdoms. These substances are manipulated and diluted to offer small doses of the active ingredient. A homeopathic medicine is a medicine obtained from substances called stocks or homeopathic raw materials, according to a manufacturing process described in the European pharmacopoeia, or failing that, in a pharmacopoeia officially used in a Member State, and which may have several principles. Homeopathy occupies a prominent place today due to the high degree of development of its practice, and because it is inserted in official and academic bodies.
