The other medicine, on the other hand, is completely without evidence. Acupuncture is all under discussion also due to the many ways in which it can be performed; homeopathic products, for the most part, do not contain anything, phytotherapeutic products do not know exactly what they contain and can vary from preparation to preparation. There is no control, they have been put on the market only with a notification and they are not obliged to present any documentation that guarantees their effectiveness. While the prices of medicines reimbursed by the National Health Service are the result of negotiations, homeopathic and phytotherapeutic products have the right to fix the price they want&quot;.<\/p>\n<p><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 0cm 0cm 10pt\" class=\"MsoNormal\"><font size=\"3\"><font face=\"Calibri\">According to Garattini, \u201cThe path of the two medicines is also an attack on a precious asset: the National Health Service, whose sustainability over time is linked to the reimbursement of evidence-based treatments. It is good for politicians to reflect on the need to privilege rationality rather than chasing after everything that can bring consensus and votes\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><\/font><\/font><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"line-height: 115%; font-family: &quot;Calibri&quot;,&quot;sans-serif&quot;; font-size: 11pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-ansi-language: IT; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA\">com\/mpd&nbsp; <\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"padding-bottom: 8px; width: 175px; padding-right: 8px; height: 50px; padding-top: 8px\" id=\"il_fi\" alt=\"\" width=\"295\" height=\"89\" src=\"http:\/\/calabria.usb.it\/uploads\/pics\/asca_06.gif\" \/><\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"padding-bottom: 8px; padding-right: 8px; padding-top: 8px\" id=\"il_fi\" src=\"http:\/\/www.my-personaltrainer.it\/erbe-medicinali\/omeopatia-diluizioni.gif\" width=\"608\" height=\"202\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp; 26-04-11 (ASCA) &#8211; Roma, 26 apr &#8211; Silvio Garattini, Direttore dell&#8217;Istituto di Ricerche Farmacologiche &#8216;Mario Negri&#8217;, sul numero del settimanale &#8216;Oggi&#8217; in edicola domani, critica duramente la decisione dell&#8217;ospedale di Grosseto di accogliere al suo interno ambulatori di agopuntura, omeopatia e fitoterapia. &#8221;Da qualche decennio &#8211; sostiene &#8211; la vera medicina cerca di passare &hellip;<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":9846,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[90],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13757","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-fedaiisf-archivio-storico"],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13757","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13757"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13757\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9846"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13757"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13757"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.fedaiisf.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13757"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
