Sumario:Background: Homoeopathy is a holistic system of medicine that has shown efficacy in treating renal and urinary stone diseases without side effects. Objectives: To determine the efficacy of homoeopathy in the treatment of renal and urinary stone diseases through a case study of a large-sized stone arrested in the prostatic part of the urethra. Materials and Methodology: A case report of a 38-year-old male presenting with dysuria and hematuria, confirmed by ultrasonography (USG). Pre-treatment reports, along with the expulsion of a 9.8 x 6.4 mm stone, were evaluated to assess effectiveness. Results: Following individualization, Cantharis was prescribed. The patient expelled the large stone along with smaller calculi within 48 hours. Conclusion: Homoeopathy, when prescribed on the principle of individualization, can be effective in the treatment of renal and urinary stone disease.
