HRI State of Research for Homeopathy 2023
2023-09-20 12:00 - 13:00
HRI State of Research for Homeopathy

AAHP’s most popular webinar is back! The Homeopathic Research Institute’s Chief Executive and one of the world’s leading homeopathic research experts Rachel Roberts will present an updated encore of her sold-out lecture from nearly three years ago.
Learn From the Expert
Many in the homeopathy sector say there is “loads” of evidence homeopathy works. Detractors say there is no evidence at all that homeopathy is anything more than a placebo effect. As is often the case, the reality is in between these extremes. In this presentation we will look at the true status of the clinical evidence base for homeopathy – including both its strengths and weaknesses – as well as identifying where some of the frequently repeated myths surrounding this topic originate, so they can be firmly dispelled.

Featured Speaker

Exploring Teaching Homeopathy in U.S. Pharmacy SchoolsPresented by William R. Doucette, Ph.D.Dr. Doucette is the Deborah K. Veal Professor in Health-Care Policy in the Department of Pharmacy Practice & Science at the University of Iowa in Iowa City. His research interests include ways that pharmacists, especially in the community, can influence medication use. Bill is currently working to publish a study of data collected in Winter 2021-2022 on the status of homeopathy being taught in U.S. pharmacy schools. The study emphasized preparing pharmacists to be reliable sources of information for patients when they ask about homeopathic products. If published, the study would be just one of nearly 200 peer-reviewed publications in which he has been involved. As a professor, he hopes to advance ways that pharmacists can help patients take their medications safely and effectively.

3 Crucial Topics Discussed in Depth
This half-day cGMP seminar will help homeopathic manufacturers prepare for Food and Drug Administration (FDA) inspection by facilitating an understanding of compliance requirements from both the Homeopathic Pharmacopoeia of the United States (HPUS), Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), and FDA. Learn about the most pressing enforcement topics and microbiological requirements for your products.
