Brief Summary

Nephrolithiasis is one of the most common disease of urinary tract. It is becoming one of the emerging challenges in the medical field because of modern lifestyle changes, sedentary habits, unhealthy dietary plan and overweight problems. The prevalence is increasing throughout the industrialized world. It is common affecting individuals of all countries and ethnic groups. It is more common in male as compared to female. More common in whites than in black. It shows a familial predisposition.

Homoeopathy is a mode of treatment which is based on individualization and its holistic approach treats effectively without adverse effect. It is more beneficial to manage nephrolithiasis of with low cost by Homoeopathic medicine as compared to other system of medicine. Robin Murphy repertory is a unique repertory, which helps a practitioner to find out the similimum on the basis of clinical as well as classical symptoms. Murphy’s concept of totality is based on clinical as well as classical homoeopathic practice. Robin Murphy repertory is more effective and most authenticated repertory in treatment of nephrolithiasis since clinical and diagnostic symptoms are available. So in my dissertation of Nephrolithiasis I have chosen Robin Murphy repertory.
