Top Homeopathic Remedies for Sjogren’s Syndrome

Sjogren’s syndrome is an autoimmune disorder that attacks the glands that make saliva (salivary glands) and glands that make tears (lachrymal glands). When the salivary and lachrymal glands get destroyed, it leads to a dry mouth (xerostomia) and dry eyes (xerophthalmia). Apart from these glands, Sjogren’s syndrome may also damage other parts including joints, lungs, thyroid gland, kidneys, skin, and liver. Homeopathic medicines for Sjogren’s syndrome help in the symptomatic management of the disease. Nux Moschata, Belladonna, and Rhus Tox are the top homeopathic medicines that help treat Sjogren’s syndrome by moderating the overactive immune system.

Reasons and Risk Factors for Sjogren’s Syndrome

Sjogren’s syndrome is a disease of the autoimmune origin where the immune cells start to destroy healthy body tissues as a result of a misplaced immune response. The glands that make saliva and tears are destroyed in Sjogren’s syndrome. Certain risk factors predispose a person to develop Sjogren’s syndrome. These factors include a genetic predisposition and having any another autoimmune disease including lupus or rheumatoid arthritis. When Sjogren’s syndrome appears in association with any other autoimmune disorder, it is known as secondary Sjogren’s syndrome. Sjogren’s syndrome arising without any other related autoimmune condition is known as primary Sjogren’s syndrome. Women are a higher risk to develop Sjogren’s syndrome as compared to males. It is mostly diagnosed at the age of 40 years or above.

Symptoms of Sjogren’s Syndrome

The significant symptoms of Sjogren’s syndrome include dry eyes (xerophthalmia) and dry mouth (xerostomia). Along with dry eyes, other attending eye symptoms include itching, burning, stinging, redness and a sand-like gritty sensation in the eyes. Dry mouth may lead to difficulty in speaking, difficulty in swallowing and the tongue adhering to the roof of the mouth. Dryness and cracks of the lips may also be present. Having a dry mouth also predisposes a person to get oral fungal infections and tooth decay. Other symptoms include pain, stiffness, and swelling in the joints, fatigue or tiredness, and dry, itchy skin. In some cases, there may be swelling of the salivary glands, prolonged dry cough, and muscle aches. Women may experience vaginal dryness.

    नमस्ते डॉ०,
    मेरी पत्नी, श्रीमती रेणु कुमारी (55 वर्ष) को नवंबर 2023 में जांच के बाद स्ज़ोग्रेन सिंड्रोम बताया गया है हालांकि अधिकांश लक्षण बहुत पहले से हैं. शुगर, थायरॉइड, दर्द चिड़चिड़ापन, और थकाना के लक्षण 10 से 15 वर्ष से हैं. पेट में गैस व क़ब्जियत का भी इतिहास है. अंग्रेजी दवाएं चलती रही हैं. आंखों और मुख की शुष्कता पर ध्यान अब गया है. सिंड्रोम के लिए एलोपैथी इलाज तीन माह से चल रहा है. परंतु इसके परिणाम अनिश्चित लग रहे हैं. यदि आप हमारी सहायता कर सकें तो बताएं. एक और बात. 35 की आयु में ही रजोरोध की समस्या आ गई थी. अन्य आवश्यक जानकारी मुझसे ली जा सकती है.
    उत्तर की प्रतीक्षा करूंगा.

    I have had dry mouth for 3 years and dry troublesome eyes on and off along with dry lips for a long time in winter time.I had a respiratory condition from mid December and now can’t seem to get my strength back with each day feeling weaker by the day. Last autumn I had 2 teeth root canal treatment and now feel my teeth have suddenly become very sensitive at night particularly. (My dentist said the teeth were dying) I feel very anxious. I have recently had a few shocks in the family. Each time I feel less able to cope. I find
    doctors are a waste of time, have no confidence in them and dread hospitals. At age 84 I’m finding it so hard to know what to do. Trying to help myself with natural remedies, as I’ve done for most of life, it is hard to concentrate. Sleep is also becoming difficult….. I would so appreciate it for positive help .
    Thank you so much.

    Hi Dr. Sharma,

    My mother has been diagnosed with Sjrogens and her immune system is affecting her lungs. Doctors have her taking a medication that is Mycophenolate. She has been on it for 3 months with no improvement. She said she was better without it and it causes her anxiety, insomnia, and depression. We would like to find a natural remedy for both to help balance the autoimmune disorder and inflammation in her body. Could you please shed some light here? Is there a natural medicine she could try to reduce the inflammation in her lungs? I’m so worried about my mama and miss seeing her be happy and healthy.

    Namastey sir ,i am 26 years old unmarried female.i am suffering from sjoren syndrome .it was diagnosed two years ago.since then i am on treatment from allopathic medicine. I have studied that it is not curable by allopathic medicine.plz suggest me accurate medication that can cure my disease.

  19. I have seronegative Sjogrens combined with small fiber peripheral neuropathy and secondary erythromelalgia. I’m interested in Sjogren’s treatment for autoimmune modulation that might stop the attack on my salivary glands and will eliminate or significantly reduce the dry mouth. I’ve already been taking Reishi mushroom in addition to high doses of Vitamin D3 and K2 for some time to hopefully help with immune modulation. I’m also on a mega dose Omega 3 protocol for small fiber peripheral neuropathy. I’m hoping to get a personal email reply and not just a comment post.
