CFI petitions FDA about homeopathic "medicines"

In its industry-wide petition, CFI and CSI request the FDA to initiate rulemaking that would require all over-the-counter homeopathic drugs to meet the same standards of effectiveness as non-homeopathic drugs. Although the FDA has the authority to require homeopathic drugs to undergo testing for effectiveness, it has to date declined to do so.

Hard to believe this is necessary in 2011. Homeopathy is ludicrous.
