Had complementary doctors always right? For years, they treated their patients with a lot of antibiotics. Even if they suffered from infections, which your medical colleagues looked at treatment with the potent drugs as necessary. Not infrequently, they were criticized for it.

has Now turned the tide. New guidelines recommend, in diseases such as Angina, Bronchitis, bladder and to refrain from otitis media to antibiotics, as long as the history is unremarkable. Suddenly, children and family physicians with additional training in homeopathy or Chinese medicine good grades for their restraint in prescribing practice.

that may be The case for many complementary physicians of a satisfaction. But actually, this development is primarily a success of the evidence-based medicine, which calls for high-quality studies as the Basis of therapies. The new recommendations are based on extensive data, which in the past have been lacking, and show that the Use of antibiotics in the diseases, often too little to outweigh the possible damage and risks. Studies help to improve the treatment of patients. This type of Knowledge acquisition is actually the exact opposite of the self-understanding of the complementary medicine. It is based explains the masses to experience and closes often scientific arguments.

And so it is actually a funny punch line, that now, of all things, homeopaths and anthroposophists to meet the new requirements better than many of the school physician. Because, according to the same scientific standards that you will meet in case of antibiotics, they are mostly placebo medicine.

Now it remains to hope that the success of Complementary medicine is an incentive for those house and children’s doctors, which the sub-farewell to the antibiotics currently still difficult.
