Homeopathy Medicine and Homeopathy Treatment
The effectiveness of homeopathy preparations is controversial in medical science. Scientists wonder how a highly diluted substance can retain biological effects.
In Australia, in 2015, the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC) issued a homeopathic statement based on its own assessment of available clinical evidence. The NHMRC has concluded that there is no reliable evidence that homeopathy is effective for any health condition.
NHMRC Statement on Homeopathy states that it should not be used to treat chronic, serious, or potentially serious health conditions. People who choose homeopathy could put their health at risk if they refuse or delay treatments that have clear evidence of safety and effectiveness. Those considering should first seek the advice of a licensed medical professional.
Searches by the highly regarded Cochrane Reviews (which examine the most rigorous clinical research trials) also found no evidence of a homeopathic benefit beyond a placebo effect.
