RESUMO
A Organização Mundial da Saúde (OMS) reconheceu a Covid-19 como uma nova doença infectocontagiosa em 12/01/2020, que logo tornou-se pandêmica. A Homeopatia historicamente apresenta bons resultados no tratamento de doenças epidêmicas, desde quando seu criador, Samuel Hahnemann, obteve êxito no tratamento, controle e profilaxia de uma epidemia de escarlatina no ano de 1799. O objetivo desse trabalho era o estudo retrospectivo de sintomas comuns da doença na sua primeira fase, buscando um grupo de sintomas característicos que indicassem os possíveis medicamentos do "gênio epidêmico". Para isso, utilizamos a metologia desenvolvida por Hahnemann e James Tyler Kent para o entendimento dos sintomas comuns da doença. Foram utilizados relatos de casos de 27 pacientes com Covid-19 confirmados laboratorialmente enviados por médicos homeopatas em diversas regiões do Brasil. Os sintomas mais característicos encontrados foram fraqueza intensa, febre baixa, tosse seca, sudorese profusa noturna, cefaleia incaracterística e ageusia/anosmia. Utilizando-se de várias técnicas de repertorização desses sintomas, chegou-se ao grupo de cinco medicamentos possíveis para o tratamento da doença Arsenicum album, Bryonia alba, China officinalis, Chininum arsenicosum e Phosphorus.
ABSTRACT
The World Health Organization (WHO) recognized Covid-19 as a new infectious disease on 12th January of 2020, which soon became a pandemic. Homeopathy historically presents good results in the treatment of epidemic diseases, since the time when its creator, Samuel Hahnemann, was successful in the treatment, control and prophylaxis of a scarlet fever epidemic in the year of 1799. The objective of this work was the retrospective study of common symptoms of disease in its first phase, looking for a group of characteristic symptoms that would indicate the possible remedies of the "epidemic genius". For this, we used the methodology developed by Hahnemann and James Tyler Kent to understand the common symptoms of the disease. Case reports of 27 patients with laboratory-confirmed Covid-19 sent by homeopathic physicians in different regions of Brazil were used. The most characteristic symptoms found were intense weakness, low fever, dry cough, profuse night sweats, uncharacteristic headache and ageusia/anosmia. Using various techniques for repertorizing these symptoms, a group of five possible drugs for the treatment of the disease was reached Arsenicum album, Bryonia alba, China officinalis, Chininum arsenicosum and Phosphorus.
