The ABC Homeopathy Forum
fda hearing - act now!
The FDA is preparing to hold hearings on homeopathy April 20 and 21, 2015. They are going to re-evaluate homeopathy's status. Any decision to restrict availability of homeopathic remedies would negatively impact millions of consumers. ItÂ’s important that everyone go to the Federal Register website and make a comment supporting homeopathy.( Sorry the system wouldn't let me post the url )

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Hi Alan,
See below:
A proposed rule published in the Federal Register notifies the public of a pending regulation.
Any person or organization may comment on it directly, either in writing, or orally at a hearing. Many agencies also accept comments online or via e-mail. The comment period varies, but it usually is 30, 60, or 90 days. For each notice, the Federal Register gives detailed instructions on how, when, and where a viewpoint may be expressed. In addition, agencies must list the name and telephone number of a person to contact for further information.
When agencies publish final regulations in the Federal Register, they must address the significant issues raised in comments and discuss any changes made in response to them. Agencies also may use the notice and comment process to stay in contact with constituents and to solicit their views on various policy and program issues.
Can you give more info on how to make a comment?
No one is going to figure this out?? It has to be made easy and I am
willing to make it easy for people, but I don't know where to go here.
Please write to the forum owner:
Simon At abchomeopathy dot com
and ask him how to put the url in or what the problem is -
I am sure he will be helpful as this affects his business.

This is the link that the moderator put up.

I hope homeopaths do some research on what the
end game is here, and who is behind it. Companies
that have a vested interest in selling remedies
like Hylands and Boiron, need to form an appropriate
strategy as in, have pre made comments that will
have the right effect and people just electronically
sign their name and address and those petitions etc
need to go on social media, move on .org and petition
sites etc.and get sent to the right people.
They tried to do this with Vitamins awhile back-but
there was a huge backlash and that disappeared.
I will say that Boiron and Hylands need to change
the labeling- and not put take 4 tabs every 4 hours
and Never say when to stop. That is a fairly recent
thing.

I think it's pretty safe to say that the FDA is not concerned with public safety. They've approved many drugs that killed thousands of people. Their only concern is protect Pharma's from
competition.
They may take the approach that homeopathy doesn't work, or...they may say it's dangerous, for instance, and try to prevent access to higher potencies or nosoeds without a doctor's prescription....which of course most people could never get. We need to stand together
on this against any further regulation.
