Brief Summary
|
This study is a single arm, prospective clinical interventional study to determine the role of Oleum jecoris aselli 3X in iron deficiency anemia associated with Hypovitaminosis D that will be conducted by considering the patient presenting with symptoms like weakness, muscle cramps, joint pains, hairfall and other features of IDA and Hypovitaminosis D consulting the outpatient and inpatient department, peripheral centers, special camps of National Homoeopathy Research Institute in Mental Health, Kottayam.The primary outcome measure will the changes in the hemoglobin level, assessed every month. The secondary outcome measures will be the changes in the serum ferritin level and 25[OH]D level, assessed before and after treatment. Liver function tests will be done once in 3 months to check for the toxicological effects(if any) after repeated administration of medicine in 3X potency.This study aims to make the efforts to offer possibilities for future research in identifying the role of Oleum jecoris aselli 3X in the management of iron deficiency anemia and Hypovitaminosis D individually as well as in association. |
