Homoepathic medications for eczema are proven over a period of time, are safe, and address the patient as a whole instead of the just the eczema symptoms. However, during the consultation, the homeopath will ask for various symptoms, which may not be related to skin. However, these have a bearing on the problem and the prescription is often done to address issues wholesomely.
