This month, we publish the results of a Drug and Therapeutics Bulletin Survey on Herbal Medicines, an online research designed to explore healthcare professionals’ knowledge of and attitudes towards herbal medicines. In this podcast, Dr Ike Iheanacho, DTB Editor, and David Phizackerley, DTB Deputy Editor, discuss the results of the survey, and issues related to the use and regulation herbal medicines, with Dr Linda Anderson, Principal Pharmaceutical Assessor at the MHRA and Mr Michael McIntyre, Chairman of the European Herbal and Traditional Medicine Practitioners Association. The results of DTB Survey on Herbal Medicines are available on our website, dtb.bmj.com.
