Introduction 

The 2009 Annual Evidence Update on Homeopathy aims to identify, organise and present all relevant systematic reviews and randomised controlled trials (RCTs) published between May 2008 and May 2009.

Previously published studies have been included in the 2008 Annual Evidence Update on Homeopathy or can be found by searching this website.

We have searched a large number of databases and used strict selection criteria for the identified studies, in order to base the annual update on the best current evidence available. The studies included in this update have met our selection criteria but have not been fully appraised. Where there is an appraisal available we have linked to it. If there is no appraisal and you wish to appraise the selected studies here is a link to a list of appraisal tools.

For more details about the search methods and the selection process for this annual update see the methodology section.

For a brief overview of the topic of Homeopathy, including information on clinical uses and safety, see the introductory article.
