Should the use of homeopathic treatments on children be banned?
http://drugtreatmentcenterscoloradosprings.com/?post_type=post&p=3908
Question by Gary Y: Should the use of homeopathic treatments on children be banned? A prominent pharmacy consultant is calling for the Australian Federal Government to ban the use of homeopathic treatments on children. From the article, "Homeopathy not for children: pharmacist":- His comments come after a British parliamentary panel found homeopathy was "scientifically implausible" and should no longer be licensed by medicine regulators. "I think what the TGA should do is not allow homeopathic medicines to be used or sold for children up to the age of 12," he said. "That's because of the dangers that the parents, with the best will in the world, may just decide that's the way to go and then the child gets sicker and sicker." The entire article: http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2010/02/23/2827835.htm?section=justin I welcome your answers. @Kaye B - I didn't ask about prescribed drugs. Try to stay on topic and answer the question please. @Lightning - You have been told before about the dangers of foregoing proper medical treatments in favor of placebos. @Mantra - congratulations for committing a WTF fallacy. @Aristo - I didn't ask about clean drinking water, speed or Ritalin. Try to stay on topic please. @Avicenna - please at least attempt to answer the question. @Kobayashi - good to hear from you again! ------- @ Mr E - whats the hard part about you alties just answering the question? I didn't ask about prescription drugs! Is it because you truly know that homeopathy is bunk, but you just can't admit it because it goes against your anti-medicine ideology? A form of cognitive dissonance? Best answer:

Answer by angrydoc
Oh no! there's an epidemic of rationality spreading! Yes, homeopathy should not just be banned for use in children but in adults too. edit: Yes, Kaye B, prescribed drugs, given properly for correctly diagnosed conditions are better. A trillion times better than unproven homeopathy. edit 2: Lightning said: "But I thought you believed it was just water Gary..... Surely its harmless if thats the case?" Dr. Lightning in all his wittiness must have forgotten that delayed treatment can also harm children. Oh no! edit 3: Avicenna/ Truthseeker said: "In favour of what? How would you like to replace the Homoeopathic remedies even if used as placebo only." Homeopathy should be banned in favor of real medical therapies. Therapies that work. The second part of your inane statement makes no sense whatsoever. Is it a question? I don't get it.

Meet Johnny The Healer, Founder Creator & Director of The Holistic Sanctuary ????? - Meet The Founder Creator and Director of The Holistic Sanctuary, Johnny the Healer. Johnny is the creator of the worlds first addiction cure center, He is also the inventor of The Pouyan Method. A protocol that reverses drug and alcohol induced brain damage. Johnny lost his mother to crack cocaine in 1987, and his brother to a drug related suicide in 2001 while his brother was a patient in a residential drug treatment center. Johnny himself was hooked on drugs for almost 20 years. Although he tried, he could not escape the grips of the ravishing illness called addiction. While trying to escape the life style and beat his own addiction, Johnny tried over 15 attempts with conventional rehabs over a 10 year span. With (county funded rehab, high end rehabs, in-custody rehabs, 12 Steps Rehabs 12 Step AA/NA meetings, medication therapy, inpatient programs/ outpatient, and other group meetings etc) You name it, Johnny tried them all. But after 10 years failed attempts, going in and out of jail and rehabs, Johnny got sick and tired of the revolving door. Not only that, but he noticed these so called treatment methods were toxic. It became obvious to Johnny why his brother hung himself in rehab. The Outdated toxic regiment called "Treatment " in drug rehabs fail 95% of the time. Rehab centers do not even believe addiction is reversible.They actually believe addicts and alcoholics are born with the disease and claim all addicts and alcoholics are powerless. This is an outdated and ...

Drug Rehab Programs in Maryland

There are hundreds upon hundreds of drug rehab programs in Maryland that claim they provide the most effective addiction treatment in the country. You can go on the internet and find drug rehab after drug rehab listed with a variety of "recovery claims". It appears that most of these drug rehab programs and alcohol rehab programs are properly licensed and do provide basic addiction treatment services. There are several challenges though and one, is that the Maryland drug rehab might be located close to your "stomping grounds" and the second is the quality of Family recovery program it provides.

Choosing a Drug Rehab Outside of Maryland

While it is usually more comfortable to choose a drug rehab close to home, we are not looking for comfort, we are looking for recovery. The closer a person is to home, the closer they are to the neighborhood liquor store and drug dealer. In the early stages of drug rehab a person generally will go through alcohol detox or drug detox. This is a challenging time, where cravings are intense and the desire to leave drug rehab is at an all time high. People generally think twice about leaving drug rehab if they are not receiving addiction treatment services in their own back yard.

The Family Component in Drug Rehab

We all know the damage that has occurred within the family due to years of drug addiction and alcoholism. Most drug rehab programs will offer family therapy once weekly for two to three weeks to resolve issues that have taken years upon years to develop. Quality addiction treatment programs and drug rehab programs will have a family recovery component consisting of a minimum of four complete days for the family and patient to work together. These groups should be run by a licensed marriage and family therapist with a background in addiction treatment.

For a addiction treatment program, drug rehab, alcohol rehab or dual diagnosis treatment center in Maryland, you can call the national addiction treatment helpline at 1-800-511-9225 or go to www.recoveryconnection.org
