Homeopathic treatment for gallstones:

Homeopathy successfully dissolves small and medium-sized gallstones and help you avoid the gallbladder removal. Surgery to remove the gallbladder and a portion of the cystic duct costs about $ 12,000. By contrast, homeopathic medicines for dissolving gallstones cost less than $200-250 a year if treatment for that length of time is required.

Homeopathy also provides fast pain relief in gallbladder attacks and can be used for prevention and treatment of biliary colic. The medicines are natural, effective and have no side effects. In patients with gallbladder removal homeopathy can alleviate the digestive disorders after surgery.
