Does Homeopathy Work?

Is there evidence that this popular complementary therapy works? Join the debate and find out more.


As homeopathy becomes increasingly popular, with an estimated 400,000 users, several questions remain unanswered. Is there any evidence it works? Reviews of clinical trials fail to provide convincing evidence, yet it is available on the NHS. Should it be? Homeopathic products can legally claim to cure ailments, is this right when their effectiveness is still contested by many scientists?

Join us to debate the evidence on both sides with Dr Peter Fisher, Clinical Director of the Royal London Homeopathic Hospital and Dr Ben Goldacre, medical writer and broadcaster, and decide for yourself.
