PINHEIRO, Jessyca Karen et al. Use of homeopathy in dairy cattle as a modulator of liver function: a review. Ces. Med. Vet. Zootec. [online]. 2021, vol.16, n.1, pp.29-46.  Epub 18-Nov-2021. ISSN 1900-9607.  https://doi.org/10.21615/cesmvz.16.1.2.

Homeopathy can be used in dairy farming as a safe alternative to antibiotics, capable of reducing the expansion of microbial resistance, while maintaining the health of herds. However, homeopathic compounds can also be used as liver protectors, and can act in the modulation of liver function. Herbal homeopathic medicines can be used as hepatoprotective agents, since they have the ability to prevent and repair liver disorders that commonly affect lactating cows. Thus, knowledge of the therapeutic properties of plants allows the preparation of homeopathic preparations, capable of preserving the health of farm animals. Based on this, the aim of this review was to discuss plant compounds used in homeopathy as hepatoprotectors and their effects on liver metabolism and on the productive response of lactating ruminant animals.
