- Tautopathy
Alternative Medicine This article is part of the CAM series of articles. Tautopathy is a practice of
alternative medicine that is similar tohomeopathy in that it uses very diluted substances to treat illness. However, tautopathy does not rely on thelaw of similars , as homeopathy does. According to tautopathy practitioners, dilute solutions of lead and arsenic can cause the body to secrete excess amounts of these toxic metals. Also, according to advocates, a patient exhibiting negative side effects from conventional medication could be treated by a dilute solution of the same medication, to give the same healing effect while lessening the side effects.
