Cure?

_____________________________________________________
What is a medicine supposed to do?
Why are homoeopathic medicines also called remedies?
What is a remedy?
A remedy is a solution, to rectify or to remove something undesirable.
One of the main attractions for homoeopathy is that it has a definition of cure.
This is the goal by which all prescriptions should be based...

"The highest ideal of cure is rapid, gentle and permanent restoration of the health, or removal and anihilation of the disease in this whole extent, in the shortest, most reliable and most harmless way on easily comprehensive principles."
from: The Organon of Medicine, Sixth Edition, Samuel Hahnemann

Do you feel that conventional medicines are prescribed to do this?
