Rocal ceases trading: what homeopathic alternatives are available online?

The announcement that Rocal, a long-established manufacturer of homeopathic products, is to cease trading has raised a number of questions among users of homeopathic medicines in France. After 35 years of service, Rocal has had to make the difficult decision to cease trading due to the contraction of the single-dose homeopathy market, a situation exacerbated by the fact that it will no longer be covered by social security in 2021.

At Soin-et-Nature, an online pharmacy specialising in homeopathy, we understand the concerns this news may arouse. However, we would like to reassure our customers that we are committed to continuing to offer you quality homeopathic solutions, in collaboration with reliable partners such as Boiron and Lehning Laboratories.

Background to Rocal’s closure

Since 2021, the homeopathic market in France has experienced a significant decline, mainly due to the end of its reimbursement by the health insurance scheme. This decision has had a major impact on the viability of companies specialising in unit homeopathy, including Rocal, which has recorded a loss of profitability since 2022. The company has been forced to cease trading in the face of an economic situation that has become unsustainable. However, this decision does not mark the end of homeopathy in France.

Although Rocal is winding down its business, this does not mean that homeopathy is disappearing. At Soin-et-Nature, we remain committed to offering a wide range of homeopathic solutions. Boiron, the world leader in homeopathy, continues to develop quality homeopathic medicines. In addition, Lehning Laboratories, well known for their natural products, are continuing their mission with phytotherapeutic solutions, food supplements and mother tinctures.
