Background: homeopathy is a science that cares for the patient with a holistic approach; it has proven its validity in the successful treatment of certain ailments. Objective: to elaborate a mini-guide as a support resource for the homeopathic doctor for the treatment of high blood pressure. Methods: a cross-sectional observational research was carried out at Villa Clara University of Medical Sciences, during 2016. Theoretical methods were used: historical-logical, analytical-synthetic, inductive-deductive and systemic-structural; and empirical ones: the survey in the form of a questionnaire to doctors qualified in homeopathy to check their level of knowledge on the subject. Results: the authors consider that the literature on homeopathy is still insufficient, there was a lack of knowledge among the professionals surveyed and bibliographic outdating in content, so a homeopathic mini-guide was developed that was assessed by specialists. Conclusions: it contains the description of multiple homeopathic medicines to face high blood pressure and was assessed as useful, pertinent, feasible, updated in its contents and of scientific-pedagogical value by the specialists consulted.
