The Australian National Council for Health and Medical Research (NHRMC) conducted an in-depth review of 225 homeopathy studies and concluded in a report that there was no “reliable evidence” of its effectiveness in treating disease. During this review, Australian experts did not find “well-designed studies with enough participants to support the idea that homeopathy works better than a placebo, or provides health improvements equivalent to those of ‘other treatments’.
Although several studies have been published on the effectiveness of homeopathy, these, say the NHRMC, “had too few participants or were too poorly constructed to take their conclusions into account.”
Professor Professor Warwick Anderson, Director of the Australian National Health Council therefore draws attention to the fact that “homeopathy should not be prescribed to treat chronic, serious or potentially serious conditions”.
In France, homeopathic medicines are used more and more. They are prescribed regularly by more than 13,000 doctors in most pathologies treated in general medicine (ENT sphere, trauma, stress and anxiety, allergies, joint pain, digestive problems, dermatology). These drugs are also used to accompany the treatment of serious pathologies in order to reduce the side effects of conventional treatments.
