That's up to you: I don't have any evidence to support use of homeopathic remedies in elderly who are falling. Instead, I would recommend taking your mom to see her Family Doc, General Internist or Geriatrician for complete evaluation including review of medications, both prescription & OTC, plus dietary supplements. Ask for Home Health to assess safety. Physical Therapy to reduce fall risk.
