Popis: | Conduct disorder is a psychiatric syndrome occurring in childhood and adolescence, and is characterised by a long-standing pattern of violations of rules and antisocial behaviour. The aetiology of conduct disorder involves an interaction of genetic/constitutional, familial and social factors. Conduct disorder increases the risk of several public health problems, including violence, weapon use, substance abuse and dropping out of school. Thus, it is important to identify conduct disorder and begin intervention as early as possible.Three cases of conduct disorder are presented here, which have been treated exclusively with homoeopathic medicines without any supportive therapies. The diagnosis and severity were assessed by Conduct Disorder Diagnostic Tool and the symptomatic assessment was done by using Conduct Disorder Rating Scale-Parent Version. Possible causal attribution of changes was explicitly depicted by Naranjo Criteria.The initial outcome of homoeopathic treatment shows a positive role of homoeopathy as the cases are exclusively managed by homoeopathic medicine. |
