	allopathy
		Allopathy is a term used by American homeopaths, naturopaths, chiropractors and other advocates of alternative health practices to refer to conventional medicine.
		My Random House Dictionary of the English Language (unabridged edition) defines allopathy as "the method of treating disease by the use of agents that produce effects different from those of the disease treated (opposed to homeopathy)." The word was invented by homeopath Samuel Hahnemann as a term for those who are other than homeopaths.
		In America, the term has not caught on and is used mainly by "alternative" practitioners and some osteopaths.

	Allopathy - Famous Therapies - GKIndia.com
		Allopathy is a term used by homeopaths, naturopaths, chiropractors and other advocates of alternative health practices to refer to traditional medicine.
		Allopathy, as it turns out, was another invention of homeopath Samuel Hahnemann, being his term for all medical theories and practices which didn't fit into his like cures like superstition.
		The "dirty tricks" of the allopathic medical societies in the early years of this century, plus the lure of the "magic bullet" of the new antibiotic drugs, led to a decline in homeopathy in the middle of this century, to the point that 20 years ago very few medical doctors were practicing it.

	Ayurveda & Allopathy - A Critical Comparison
		Although allopathy's view is well formed, it has come about as a result of experimentation; it does not rest on a secure foundation of a fixed conceptual framework, but formulates concepts to serve the conclusions of ongoing experimentation.
		Allopathy's rational methodology, it must be remembered, arose as a reaction to irrational European reliance on incantations and superstition that could be considered pre-rational spiritual sentiments, or a vitiated form of the rational spirituality of ancient India.
		According to allopathy, disease is a result of invading organisms, metabolic imbalances, tissue degeneration, etc. In the model of infectious disease, for example, the invading agent is to be tracked down and killed.

	ON DEVIANCE AND CONFORMITY IN HOMEOPATHY - Peter Morrell
		From that point forwards his aim shifted away from attacks upon allopathy (which seem to fade more into the background), as he moved towards refining and reasserting the fundamental ideological basis of homeopathy, and increasingly, to refining and purifying its core techniques and methodology.
		Those allopaths who we have identified as being just as disenchanted with allopathy as Hahnemann himself was, had a further huge obstacle sitting across their path, in terms of their coming to embrace homeopathy more fully.
		Allopathy reduced its high doses and moved to simpler mixtures of drugs, as the century progressed.

	Allopathic medicine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The term was coined by Samuel Hahnemann, the founder of homeopathy, to differentiate homeopathic practices from conventional medicine, based on the types of treatments used.
		In the essay by William Jarvis cited below, he argues that "although many modern therapies can be construed to conform to an allopathic rationale (eg, using a laxative to relieve constipation), standard medicine has never paid allegiance to an allopathic principle" and that the label "allopath" was considered highly derisive by mainstream medicine.
		This term, however imprecise, was employed by his followers or other unorthodox movements to identify the prevailing methods as constituting nothing more than a competing 'school' of medicine, however dominant in terms of number of practitioner proponents and patients." In the nineteenth century, some pharmacies labelled their products with the terms allopathic or homeopathic.

	TribuneIndia...AgricultureTribune
		The term allopathy was first coined by German scientist Hans Molisch, in 1937, which refers to all the biochemical interactions (inhibitory or stimulatory) among plants.
		Allopathy is a new science which has many applications in agro-ecosystem and provides a basis to achieve the goal of sustainable agriculture.
		The science of allopathy is similar to the ayurveda system of human medicines, because both of these systems use plants or plant extracts to control plant pests and human diseases, respectively.

	Misuse of the Term "Allopathy"
		The term "allopathy" was invented by German physician Samuel Hahnemann (1755-1843).
		The terms "allopath" and "allopathy" are often used in reference to Medical Doctors and standard medicine by medical writers.
		Although medicine never accepted the label of allopathy, nonmedical practitioners such as chiropractors, homeopaths, and naturopaths regularly misrepresent physicians as "allopaths." This is usually done in order to make differences between their practice guilds appear based upon conflicting philosophies rather than ideology versus science.

		Allopathy existed before his time, just as homopathy did in a way, but it was unconscious of its own existence.
		It was Hahnemann who gave it its name ; and if he is the father of homopathy he is at least the godfather of allopathy as well, and on that account deserves to have his bust in the medical school of both sections.
		Again, when a patient treats himself for headache by taking an aperient, he practises allopathy ; and again, when a medical man puts a blister behind a patient's ear to cure inflammation of his eye, the treatment is allopathic.

	Vaccination Information from Blakkatz
		Millions of children are shot up with toxins each year, millions of lives are ruined on the altar of "modern medicine"...well, to heck with that.
		Instead of focusing on promoting healthy individuals who are naturally resistant to infectious disease, allopathy (in the case of vaccinations) focuses on introducing more disease (products) into the organism.
		I would strongly urge anyone who has awakened to the fact that allopathy may be great when you're in a car wreck, but not so efficient when dealing long term chronic disease, to investigate the homeopathic approach to treatment and cure.
