BBC NEWS | Health | Drug reactions 'must be reported'

It's good that the BMA is calling for a more careful reporting of severe adverse reactions to drugs.

I do however find it a bit ironic that the same people who slam complementary therapies for being 'unproven' have been turning a blind eye to the under-reporting of adverse reaction to proscribed drugs.

Can you imagine the pressure there would be from the medical establishment to ban any complementary therapy which caused these sort of problems and had this sort of death rate!
