Abstract	Background & Objectives - Urinary albumin excretion of 30-300 µg/24 hours is known as microalbuminuria, and it is a sign of vascular disease and glomerular damage, especially in diabetes mellitus. It greatly raises the risk of diabetic nephropathy, a major contributor to end-stage renal disease (ESRD), and is seen in 30–40% of people with type 2 diabetes mellitus. In order to decrease albumin excretion and halt the course of nephropathy, conventional care involves the use of ACE inhibitors and ARBs; however, these medications frequently result in adverse effects such as hypotension and hyperkalaemia. Homeopathy offers a personalized, holistic approach that has demonstrated potential in restoring renal function and lowering albuminuria without harmful consequences. Methods – A thorough review of the literature was carried out using databases like Google Scholar, Cochrane, PubMed, and homeopathic journals. Search terms included "microalbuminuria," "diabetes mellitus," "homoeopathy," and "diabetic nephropathy." Articles pertaining to observational studies, case reports, randomized controlled trials, and cross-sectional studies were examined. Allopathic and homeopathic interventions were compared using data on prevalence, etiology, and treatment modalities. Excluded studies were those with unclear conclusions or no connection to the study's goal. Interpretation & Conclusion – Although allopathic remedies successfully lower albuminuria, they are constrained by systemic adverse effects and complications, especially when used for an extended period of time. Numerous case studies and randomized controlled trials show encouraging results, especially when homeopathic treatments are combined with lifestyle changes. While allopathy offers immediate relief, homeopathy provides a patient-focused, side-effect-free approach, supporting sustainable management of microalbuminuria in diabetes mellitus.
