Default Homeopathy is "is no better than dummy drugs"

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/4183916.stm

A leading medical journal has made a damning attack on homeopathy, saying it
is no better than dummy drugs. The Lancet says the time for more studies is
over and doctors should be bold and honest with patients about homeopathy's
"lack of benefit".

A Swiss-UK review of 110 trials found no convincing evidence the treatment
worked any better than a placebo.
