The word 'much' in the phrase is incorrect as the sentence talks about a countable noun which is 'remedy.' Thus 'many' and 'a lot of' can be placed here. 

Option A and C are grammatically correct thus can replace the erroneous phrase.

Option B is incorrect as it is grammatically incorrect. 'has been having' is no tense. 

Thus option 3 is the correct answer.
