The Australian government recently published a report investigating the effectiveness of homeopathy in many diseases, using as a source systematic reviews of clinical trials in homeopathy. The study of 57 systematic reviews enabled the analysis of 68 pathological conditions. However, this method leads to the exclusion of well conducted trials and sometimes to far too categorical analyses. Moreover, no homeopathic doctor with expertise on the subject took part in this work. Analysing each situation studied by the working group, we provide additional information and put forward proposals to determine in which areas controlled clinical trials or more pragmatic studies can be carried out.
