Pilot RCT Using Homeopathic Medicines in ASD
A Single-blind Randomized Placebo Controlled Pilot Study With Individualized Homeopathic Treatment in the Children With Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD)
Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 18 Nov 2025
Brief summary (registry, in English)
This study looked at whether homeopathic treatment could help children with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) when used alongside regular therapies like speech and occupational therapy. Over seven years, children between the ages of 3 and 12 were divided into two groups (through computer generated list). One group received individualized homeopathic medicines, and the other received a look-alike placebo (with no active ingredients). Meanwhile, both the groups continued with their regular therapies. Researchers used various tools and parent questionnaires to track the children's progress in areas like communication, behavior, social skills, daily functioning, toilet training and sensory skills.
