What is the difference between natural remedies and medicine the doctor gives you?

Don't both come from plants? Curious! Oh, sources please!
Answer:
Synthetic drugs are usually made by copying molecules identified in plants. The result is that they can be patented and they are also more toxic. Many pharmaceutical drugs are made from petroleum distillates as well. It's an interesting way to sell oil when you think about it. ;-)
there is a huge difference..but it does depend on what type of medication you are talking also. Almost all prescription drugs are man made. Also depending on what is wrong with you whether a natural remedy would work versus prescription.
There are way too many variables here, but rest assured who ever told you they are the same...is smoking something 'man made'
they are completely different from one another... natural medicine wont give u side effects such as most of the perscription medicine that may cause drownsiness.. headach.. and a sorethroat.. do not take the medicine until you have talked to your doctor.. the medicine may have risk of dependency... lol.. notice how all commercials have that warning at the end... yeah.. man made medicines... all natural shouldnt have any side effects.. and are usually cheap... thats why drug companies dont want to use it.. anyone can make it or get... so they dont have a monopoly of it... so thats why they make man made medicine that gives u side effects and you'll have to buy more medicine in order to fight those side effects and buy more medicine in order to fight those side effects and so on...
Natural remedies are like using herbs rather than prescription drugs that the doctor may prescribe for you. Natural herbs usually do not have side affects, where the over the counter or prescibed drugs may or do have side affects. So, therefore there is a differance between the two.
the real difference is that natural medicines are derived from organic sources whereas medicines are prepared synthetically
The biggest difference that I know is how the body is viewed. Naturopaths and other "alternative" doctors believe the body knows how to heal itself. The herbs %26 medicine they prescribe work WITH the body, helping it do what it already wants to do.Non-alternative doctors believe that the body isn't that intelligent. Their prescriptions are primarily geared towards the symptoms, and instead of working with the body, the medicine takes control of it.
