THE ABC's current affairs flagship Four Corners will tonight lift the lid on the regulation and marketing of complementary medicines - and "whether the credibility of chemists is threatened by selling them".
A preview of the program, titled Swallowing It, quotes the Australian Medical Association saying the trust placed by the public in doctors, nurses and pharmacists has been hard won, and is "put at risk if they're being seen to promote treatments that increasingly the average consumer recognises might be a load of rubbish".
The ABC show goes to air tonight, Mon 13 Feb 2017 at 8.30pm EDT.
