Background. Anthroposophic disinfectant is one of a at large used approaches of complementary as well as pick medicine. However, few prospective studies have generated safety data on its use. Objectives. We directed to assess adverse drug reactions (ADRs) caused by anthroposophical medicines (AMEDs) in a anthroposophical Community Hospital Havelhoehe, GERMANY. Study Design as well as Methods. Between May as well as November 2007, patients of six healing wards were prospectively assessed for ADRs. Suspected ADRs occurring during hospitalization were documented as well as personal in terms of organ manifestation (WHO SOC-code), causality (according to a Uppsala Monitoring Centre WHO criteria), as well as severity. Only those ADRs with a severity of class 2 as well as aloft according to a CTCAE classification system have been described here. Results. Of a 3,813 patients hospitalized, 174 patients (4.6%) experienced 211 ADRs (CTCAE class 2/3 n = 191, 90.5%, CTCAE class 4/5 n = 20, 9.5%) of which 57 ADRs (27.0%) were serious. The median age of patients with ADRs (62.1% females) was 72.0 (IQR: 61.0; 80.0). Six patients (0.2%) experienced six ADRs (2.8% of ADRs) caused by eight suspected AMEDs, all of which were mild reactions (grade 2). Conclusion. Our data show that ADRs caused by AMEDs start rarely as well as have been limited to mild symptoms.
