Homeoco: a pedagogical tool for understanding homeopathy
Homeoco is a digital tool designed to facilitate the reading and understanding of homeopathy, relying on digital technologies and an educational approach.
Its aim is to make the descriptions and reasoning found in homeopathic literature more accessible and readable, and to provide an informational framework for discovering this complementary approach, without replacing conventional medicine.
What is Homeoco and why “CO”?
CO as Comprehend : a homeopathic reading assistant
Homeoco offers a pedagogical conversational assistant that allows users to explore homeopathic descriptions as they appear in reference works.
- A tool intended for the general public, with an informational and educational purpose
- Support for understanding the reasoning and criteria used in homeopathy
- An approach centered on reading and exploring texts
- Possible use as a complement to discussions with a healthcare professional
Homeoco does not provide diagnoses and does not replace a medical consultation.
How does Homeoco work?
A conversational assistant invites users to describe a situation or discomfort in order to explore its different descriptive dimensions.
Based on the responses, the tool offers a guided reading of content drawn from materia medica and repertories, without therapeutic orientation.
The user remains free in their interpretation and is encouraged to consult a healthcare professional if they wish.
The objective: to make homeopathic information more accessible and easier to understand
CO as Community : resources and actors in homeopathy
Homeoco also aims, over time, to bring together documentary and informational resources related to homeopathy.
Professional resources (coming soon)

Pharmacy resources (coming soon)
- Information to help identify pharmacies offering homeopathic products
- Objective: facilitate access to information, without encouraging self-medication
CO as Connect : digital tools serving information
Digital tools can facilitate access to complex content.
Homeoco fits within this logic by offering a digital medium that centralizes, organizes, and presents homeopathic information, without ever claiming to replace human expertise.
CO as Coexist : homeopathy and conventional medicine
Conventional medicine is based on major scientific advances in diagnosis, prevention, and treatment.
Homeopathy is sometimes considered by some individuals as a complementary approach, particularly for mild situations, within a perspective of understanding or well-being.
This coexistence implies:
- clear information about the limits of each approach,
- respect for the central role of conventional medicine,
- dialogue with healthcare professionals.
Examples of documented complementary practices
Some experiences have explored the use of homeopathy in specific contexts, notably in hospitals, for the purpose of supporting patient comfort.
These initiatives are subject to scientific debate and must be viewed in context, without generalization or therapeutic conclusions.
Homeoco : safety, framework, and limits
Homeopathic products are highly diluted, which limits toxicity risks, without guaranteeing proven clinical effectiveness.
They should not be used indiscriminately or outside an informed framework.
General recommendations:
- Do not continue use without professional advice
- Discontinue in case of doubt or the appearance of new symptoms
- Consult a healthcare professional in case of persistent or concerning symptoms

which does not replace a practitioner or medical advice.
