About Dr. Prasad R. Chandragiri
Expertise
I can answer any question related to homeopathy and medicine in general. I can give information on Yoga and meditation, and some tips on naturopathy too. Being well aware of the scope and limitations about the various schools of medicine, I can guide the patients as to which therapeutic protocol would be ideal for them and I can also brief them about the probable diagnosis and prognosis for a particular case. Patients do not know that ancillary and auxiliary modes of treatment such as diet, regimen, and other non-medicinal procedures are vital in the long term treatment and prophylaxis of a particular disease. These details can also be provided to them by me.
Experience
I have ten years experience in the field. Having worked with two of the oldest homeopathic pharmacies in India as their Homeopathic Consultant, I have successfully treated thousands of patients to date.
Organizations
I was a Homeopathic Consultant for the Banaji Homeopathic pharmacy and the Zoroastrian Homeopathic Pharmacy Annexe

Education/Credentials
I have a Bachelor's degree in homeopathic medicine and surgery from the University of Mumbai.
Awards and Honors
I had topped the University and was felicitated for the same.

Expert: Dr. Prasad R. Chandragiri - 11/9/2009
Question
QUESTION: My son is 16 yrs of age. He is 5'3" tall. Until 14 years of age his growth in height was steady. Since 2 yrs he has grown only 1/2 an inch. Could you please suggest any homeo medicine for him?
ANSWER: Hello,
Please note that the slowing down of growth could be due to various reasons. It may be because he is approaching his genetic height (i.e. if his parents and grandparents aren't tall) or due to nutritional deficiencies. It may also be due to some underlying pathologies such as recurrent tonsillitis. Anyway, let him have balanced meals everyday with plenty of fruits, vegetables, and sprouts. If non-vegetarian, he should stick to only white meat,i.e., fish, chicken, and eggs. activities such as swimming, skipping, and playing basketball or volleyball will also facilitate an increase in height as these involve a lot of stretching exercises. A homeopathic patent product by SBL called RiteHite is an excellent formulation that could help him to some extent. Please follow the dosge prescribed on the bottle. Thank you.

QUESTION: As per your advice my son is taking SBL RiteHite tablets (composition-Baryta carbonica 3x,silicea 6x,calcarea phosphorica 3x and natrum muriaticum 3x). He is taking 2 tablets per day at night time. He is chewing the tablets like most homeo medicines.He is also taking some water after that. Are the timings and method of taking the tablets fine? If so, how long can he take the tablets to attain the expected results. Could you please suggest the duration the medicine should be taken.
Answer
Hello,
The timings are fine but please tell him not to drink water for at least 15 minutes after chewing the tablets. He can safely take the medicine till 18 years of age. He need not take 2 tablets every night. I would recommend one tablet instead as in Homeopathy, the dose doesn't really matter much. It is the dosage that counts. Thank you.
