COMPLEMENTARY Medicines Australia ceo Carl Gibson has announced the formation of a new advocacy group called Friends of Complementary Medicines (FoCM).
Speaking to Pharmacy Daily from the Natural Products Expo in Anaheim, California, Gibson said he was using his contacts at Buckingham Palace to invite none other than Prince Charles to be the Patron of the new group.
He said FoCM would showcase the positives of the Australian complementary medicines industry including safety, quality, responsibility and research.
"Our aim is to have 100,000 friends and supporters signed up by the end of the year," he said.
"Real consumers are passionate about the benefits of complementary medicines...millions of Australians use complementary medicines each and every day and we wanted to reflect the reality with a group that shares their passion and promotes the positives of using complementary medicines," Gibson concluded.
