Ho*me*op"a*thy, n. Etym: [Gr. Same) + homéopathie. See Pathos.]
(Med.)
Definition: The art of curing, founded on resemblances; the theory and its
practice that disease is cured (tuto, cito, et jucunde) by remedies
which produce on a healthy person effects similar to the symptoms of
the complaint under which the patient suffers, the remedies being
usually administered in minute doses. This system was founded by Dr.
Samuel Hahnemann, and is opposed to allopathy, or heteropathy.
[Written also homoepathy.]
