Dear, Julia,
We want to be jolly this Christmas season. And there is certainly much to be thankful for including the continued availability of homeopathic medicines important to our health and that of our loved ones.
But with the FDA making its proposed new guidance final this month, we now must face the prospect that at least some of our cherished medicines could be gone in the new year as the FDA decides to eliminate remedies that it considers "too risky" without having to provide any evidence of problems. This is something which is explicitly allowed by the guidance.
We must therefore now turn to Congress and ask them to step in with legislation that protects homeopathic medicines from the FDA's vague and overly broad (mis)guidance. We call it misguidance because it could lead to arbitrary and unfounded withdrawals of properly manufactured and labeled homeopathic medicines that threaten no one (and the FDA has even done so already when it was in draft form!).

You and I know that properly manufactured and labeled homeopathic medicines have never--I repeat, NEVER--killed or seriously injured anyone in over 200 years of use! And, the benefits of using homeopathy are enormous.
Click through to our landing page and use our ready-made message to contact your members of Congress in the U.S. House and Senate. There is a place for a very brief personal story about homeopathy if you'd like to include one.

In hope for a better New Year,
Paola Brown, President
