Bioregulatory medicine may be used as basic therapy or in combination with classical allopathic therapy in relation to a patient’s autoregulatory ability. Bioregulatory drugs simultaneously act upon perturbations in impaired autoregulatory networks and upon many targets. The bioregulatory drugs may be considered to be plant and other biological extracts at low concentrations, in which a large number of active substances make them ideal candidates for multidirectional action, and the antihomotoxic drugs may be deemed to be those designed in accordance with the principles of homotoxicology.
