There are frequent articles on this subject both in the scholarly and the popular literature. This situation has motivated interventions such as the recent publication of a position statement on the use of alternative medicines and pseudoscience in children by the Medicines Committee of the Asociación Española de Pediatría (Spanish Association of Paediatrics, AEP) and an educational campaign of the Ministry of Science concerning the risks involved in these therapeutic approaches.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0040"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2</span></a></p><p id="par0010" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">When it comes to the paediatric age group, there is a dearth of data on the prevalence of the use of homoeopathy in inpatient or outpatient care in Spain.

We administered this questionnaire to parents of patients that visited the emergency department of the Hospital Infantil Universitario Niño Jesús (a tertiary care children's hospital in Madrid, Spain) between December 5, 2017 and January l9, 2018. Participation in the survey was voluntary and anonymous and followed informed consent. We excluded patients with any form of chronic disease. We also confirmed that the products that parents reported using were in fact homoeopathic products. We then performed a descriptive analysis of the responses.</p><elsevierMultimedia ident="tbl0005"></elsevierMultimedia><p id="par0020" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">The sample included 286 questionnaires. Fifty-five percent of respondents (158/286) attributed therapeutic properties to homoeopathy. Forty-nine percent (139/286) reported having used homoeopathic remedies to treat their children at least once. In this subset, in the past year, 48% (67/139) used one product in their children, 14% (19/139) used 2, and 11% (15/139) used more than 2 (<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0005">Fig. 1</a>). <a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#fig0005">Fig. 1</a> presents the sources that indicated the use of homoeopathy most frequently. Forty-four percent of participants that reported using homoeopathic remedies (118/286) were satisfied with the results. In the items concerning the usefulness of homoeopathy, 44% (126/286) expressed that homoeopathy could be useful in respiratory diseases, 42% (120/286) that it could help “strengthen defences” against infection, and 26% (74/286) that it could be useful for gastrointestinal diseases. Also, 67% (191/286) considered it could be useful to treat bacterial infection. We found that 28% (39/139) were not sure whether they had used homoeopathic products. Respondents reported using homoeopathic products to suppress cough and treat other common cold symptoms (49%, 68/139), infantile colic (27%, 37/139) and toothache (24%, 34/139).</p><elsevierMultimedia ident="fig0005"></elsevierMultimedia><p id="par0025" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In this study, the first observational descriptive study on the use of homoeopathic products in children performed in a clinical practice setting in Spain, we found that the use of homoeopathy was much more prevalent than expected.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0035"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">1,3</span></a> In our study, 63% of parents or caregivers reported having used homoeopathic remedies, and also having used them in half of the children included in the study. Another salient finding was that in 60% of cases, homoeopathic remedies had been recommended by pharmacists and primary care physicians. It is important to underscore this, as it is most often professionals in the health care field that are recommending a treatment that is ineffective, potentially harmful and an unnecessary expense.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRefs" href="#bib0040"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">2,5</span></a></p><p id="par0030" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">As for the usefulness attributed to homoeopathy, respondents considered it useful mainly for treatment of upper respiratory tract infections, gastrointestinal infection or baby colic, which are all generally self-limiting processes that resolve spontaneously.<a class="elsevierStyleCrossRef" href="#bib0060"><span class="elsevierStyleSup">6</span></a> Another of the benefits commonly attributed to it is that it may strengthen immune defences, and therefore homoeopathic remedies are sometimes used in combination with pharmaceuticals, such as antimicrobial drugs.

The instrument used for data collection has not been validated and we collected data over a short period of time, in a specific season and in a single centre. The period under study included a long holiday. In light of this, it could have been useful to explore the country of origin of respondents to consider the potential influence of these factors. Furthermore, the characteristics of the respondents may not be representative of the rest of the population in Spain. We did not collect sociodemographic data or information on other social factors that could have an impact on the results, which clearly affects the external validity of the study. Last of all, potential misunderstandings of what homoeopathy is may be a significant source of bias in the interpretation of responses.</p><p id="par0040" class="elsevierStylePara elsevierViewall">In conclusion, we found substantial use of homoeopathic products in children in our sample, and also that the use of these products had been recommended by professionals in the health care field in more than half of the cases.
