I had some experience with giveing homeopathic pertussin to my son who was a
baby, to prevent an acute. He took it daily for a few months. he never had
pertussis, while many others around him did. He does however have a chronic
cough which he gets every year and is treated successfully with Pulsitilla.
He has also had Tub. which helped. I think the homoepathic prophylaxix of
pertussin suppressed my son's acute disease. I am glad it did so because the
acute pertussin is very dangerous to small chidren and the only other choice
I had was vaccination, which was not acceptable to me. He does have a lung
condition which I don't think he would have had if he was older at the time
of the outbreak and I did not medicate him, but allow his own immunity to
kick in.
Conclusion: when necessary prophylaxis is a good idea. If you can avoid it,
natural immunity is the best. Sometimes, antibiotics are our friends.
