Prescription Drug Therapy

Although Dr. Young can prescribe for you the same hormones, antibiotics and many other drugs that your ordinary medical doctor can prescribe for you, he prefers not to use prescription drugs except for perhaps limited time periods.
The majority of Dr. Young's prescriptions are oriented toward natural medicine and natural solutions which build up your body, boost your immune system and make you healthy without the toxic side effects of most prescription medications.
As an example, Dr. Young may need to prescribe an antibiotic from the pharmacist for a pneumonia or bladder infection that is out of control. Even so, Dr. Young will also prescribe natural medications that fight the infections, boost your immune system and help your body to heal and recover even faster.
Naturopathic medicine offers all the services that your medical doctor can provide and so much more.
For example, if you go to your medical doctor with a sore throat, you will get an examination, some laboratory tests and probably a prescription for an antibiotic. With Naturopathic medicine you get the same comprehensive examination and laboratory work and maybe even the same antibiotic but also, so much more. With Naturopathic medicine you will be told what foods to eat and which foods to avoid to get well faster. You will also be prescribed what to take to boost your immune system and get it into the fight against the invading micro-organism and how to protect your health so you can recover faster, and be less likely to get sick again!
Drugs and medications can be a useful tool, but show me one that doesn't have toxic side effects whether you feel them or not Regular medicine is built around drugs as their only therapy. Naturopathic medicine focuses on health and why your body is sick in the first place. Drugs cover up symptoms. Naturopathic medicine heals and strengthens.

Conditions effectively treated by Naturopathic Medical Doctors.
