Artificial Intelligence in Acute Homeopathic Prescribing: A Comparative Study

On August 6, 2025, the HOHM Research team published a peer-reviewed article in Healthcare titled, “The Application of Artificial Intelligence in Acute Prescribing in Homeopathy: A Comparative Retrospective Study.”

This study was designed to explore how an AI-based homeopathic remedy finder compared with live practitioners in the context of acute prescribing.

Study Design

  • Cases Reviewed: 100 randomly selected acute cases from a homeopathy teaching clinic
  • Method: Symptoms from practitioner case notes were entered into a commercial AI-based homeopathy remedy finder
  • Comparison: The remedies suggested by the AI tool were compared against those selected by practitioners, including considerations of posology and medical disclaimers

Results

  • In 59% of cases, the practitioner’s chosen remedy appeared somewhere in the AI’s list of recommendations
  • In 37% of cases, the practitioner’s remedy was among the AI’s top three suggestions
  • In 17% of cases, the practitioner’s remedy was the AI’s top suggestion

Conclusion

The study concluded that:

  • AI-generated suggestions should not be considered a substitute for a live homeopathy practitioner
  • Validation of AI tools against real-world clinical cases remains an ongoing challenge and necessity

Why This Matters

This work contributes to the growing body of homeopathy research by examining the role of AI in homeopathy in a clinical teaching environment. It highlights both the potential of digital tools to generate structured remedy suggestions and their limitations when compared with professional judgment.
