- W3205545425 abstract "Alternative medicine (AM) is any range of medical therapies that are not considered orthodoxby the medical profession. It includes herbalism, folk medicine, herbal medicine, naturopathy,and crystal healing. It has an ancient history and has gained importance all over the world. Inrecent times, it has fast become an integral part of the health systems of societies all aroundthe globe. In Nigeria, alternative medicine is also of great benefit and importance, especially tomost Nigerians. Sharp practices and abuse in alternative medicine practices have compelledthe setting up of agencies and regulations by the Nigerian government to regulate suchpractices. One primary agency with such responsibilities is the National Agency for Food andDrug Administration and Control (NAFDAC), which is a Commission set up to, among otherthings, regulate the practice of alternative medicine in Nigeria. The article discusses alternativemedicine and practice in Nigeria and the role of NAFDAC in regulating the practice of alternativemedicine and legislation on alternative medicine in Nigeria. The article concludes that theinstitution of NAFDAC as a regulatory agency for alternative medical practice is commendabledespite some challenges, which will be highlighted. However, more results can be achieved ifthe Commission is empowered through better policy formulation, funding, and otherinterventions to carry out its functions." @default.
