AB OBJECTIVE: To improve the immunological status through restoring the
normal CD4 level and clinically control the progression of HIV illness.
METHODS: Western blot confirmed HIV subjects (34) with immunological
assessment by peripheral lymphocyte immuno phenotyping of different age
groups of different sex acquired the infection through heterosexual
promiscuity (28), blood transfusion (5) and breast feeding (1) were kept
under homeopathic treatment. Reassessment of immunological value was
performed after mean interval of six months. Comparative values were
analysed keeping in view of haematological/clinical status. RESULTS:
Total Cases--34 (Male-32 & Female-2). On repetition of CD4 assay the
improvement was noticed in 23 cases (67.64%), status quo in 4 cases
(11.76%) and no improvement in 7 cases (20.58%). The enhancement of CD4+
upto 10% in 13 cases and above 10% in 10 cases whereas absolute count
enhancement upto 200 cells in 3 cases and above 200 cells in 13 cases
were observed. DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION: The trial of homeopathic
medicines in 34 cases has shown the improvement of immunological status
in 23 cases and maintaining status quo in 4 cases. The haematological
values were maintained within normal limit without any further
deterioration in clinical status. Further study among the large number
of HIV subjects is in progress.
