NEW LECTURE:
Goodman & Gilman's Grand Rounds lecture with CME: Pharmacology of Herbal Remedies and the Placebo Effect
by Arthur P. Grollman, MD, Department of Pharmacology, State University of New York at Stony Brook, Stony Brook, New York
About this lecture:
Unlike the procedures for marketed drugs, the efficacy, safety and interactions of herbal remedies have rarely been
established by randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trials. The lack of significant regulatory oversight by the FDA
creates uncertainty for individuals taking herbal supplements and for their physicians. In this lecture, the principles
of clinical pharmacology are used to explore current usage of herbal remedies in conjunction with a discussion of the
placebo effect.
