HC Deb 08 December 1969 vol 793 c12W
Mr. Pavitt

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services if he will ask the Medicines Commission to provide him with a list of medicines commonly used in the National Health Service but which have been found to be ineffective.

Dr. John Dunwoody

The Standing Joint Committee on the Classification of Proprietary Preparations has for many years listed preparations that in its opinion are not of proven efficacy. Copies of its reports are sent to all doctors.
