But aren't the remedy only sugar or alcohol?

Of course if you analyze chemically the remedy then we only get sugar or alcohol. But there is more than that – this is the energy of the substance. We have to go deeper into the quantum level in order to be able to measure the energy of the substance.

How about my prescribed drugs when using homeopathy?

Homeopathy can be applied parallely. A sudden drop of these prescribed drugs may be too dangerous therefore we may try to reduce the drugs step by step.
