Sprayology Effectiveness, Advertising Questioned

Despite their continued popularity, homeopathic remedies have long been questioned by medical establishments, as there is limited evidence supporting their effectiveness. Now, one company – Sprayology, which sells a range of homeopathic solutions in spray form – has been accused of falsely advertising the product. In particular, questions have been raised about the actual benefits of the sprays, and the lack of scientific evidence behind the company’s claims.

It’s been alleged that Sprayology products are advertised as having certain effects that have no clinical backing and which many consumers have found to be simply untrue.

Homeopathy is based upon the belief that “like cures like,” with homeopathic cures containing miniscule amounts – often mere molecules – of ingredients related to an illness, which are then diluted in water. Sprayology sprays are administered under the tongue by spritzing several times a day, and while homeopathy is regulated by the FDA, the treatments are not subject to effectiveness testing and never require a prescription.

It’s been alleged that Sprayology products are advertised as having certain effects – encouraging pain relief, for example, or aiding sleep – which have no clinical backing and which many consumers have found to be simply untrue. Even with some consumers claiming that homeopathic remedies can act as placebos, reports indicate that many purchasers of Sprayology bottles, which can cost around $30, have been left disappointed by the lack of results. If the manufacturer has been in any way deceptive or misleading, this could potentially equate to false advertising.

Whether Sprayology is being sold under confusing claims or not, it’s always important for consumers – especially of medical and health products – to make sure they know what they’re buying, what they can expect, and whether the products can support their own advertising.
