Homeopathic medicines are widely considered safe as they are prescribed after special preparation processes. These involve the repeated steps of dilution and succussion of shaking at each dilution. Common potencies used are “30C,” diluted 1:100 30-times, and “200C,” diluted 1:100 20,000-times. Thus, such highly diluted medicines are prescribed by skilled professionals, which are deemed safe and are not likely to cause severe side effects. On December 6, 2022, FDA issued a final guidance, Homeopathic Drug Products, that describes the agency’s approach to prioritizing regulatory actions for homeopathic products posing the greatest risk to patients.

Safety associated with homeopathic products and rise in adoption of homeopathic medicine are the critical factors attributed to the Asia Pacific homeopathy market expansion.
There are growing concerns about the potential side effects of allopathic pharmaceutical drugs or regular medication. In Asian countries, consumers have been turning to alternative medicines, such as natural remedies, homeopathy, and herbal medicines. Some skilled homeopaths have also been promoting the benefits of alternative medicines, especially to patients suffering from chronic health conditions such as cardiovascular disease and cancer. A study published in the Scandinavian Journal of Public Health in 2017 stated that alternative practices are primarily used in a complementary manner or in combination with traditional medicine. For instance, Curcuma longa (turmeric), a traditional form of medicine that originates from India, is one of the natural ingredients that is steeped in homeopathy. The preference for orally administered medications and drugs without any side effects has been on the rise for a long, and it would continue to grow in the coming years. Allopathy contains strong medications; however, they are not appropriate for everyone. Furthermore, allopathic drugs are expensive and only have a transient effect on illnesses. Moreover, despite the completion of the course of prescribed drugs, the illness can resurface. Cases of drug abuse are more common with allopathic medicines, which is another factor for the shifting focus toward natural medications. Homeopathy remedies, on the other hand, are inexpensive and exhibit no or negligible side effects. Thus, the increasing adoption of homeopathic medicine bolsters the homeopathy market growth. This is expected to drive the Asia Pacific homeopathy market during the forecast period.
