24
Legislation
10. Apart from the general products and Dermaved skin cream, it is recommended (in accordance with the APA interpretation of UK legislation) that all other herbal supplements and oils only be used as prescriptions following consultations and are not sold separately. This is in accordance with UK legislative provisions for herbal medicines. Please see the note at the end of this document.
11. The APA interpretation of the legislation is that in short, herbal medicines are exempt from licensing requirements provided they are supplied subsequent to private, personal consultation and provided they are produced according to standard traditional, non-industrial methods. No written claims may be made for the use of the remedy.
12. There is no definition within the legislation as to what constitutes a practitioner of traditional or herbal medicine.
Source, preparation, quality control and storage
13. All the plants and herbs used in the preparation of Ayurvedic herbal supplements, medicines and oils available to new practitioners / consultants and patients of the clinic are sourced from the Indian subcontinent and prepared in Sri Lanka by a trusted laboratory and producer.

availability in the country of origin and any delays in shipment. 24. Price may vary subject to any changes in the cost price of the products from source and changes to shipment, import tax or any other
associated cost including inflation and fluctuations in currency.
Ayurvedic Practitioners Association interpretation of UK legislation regarding herbal medicines
25. The UK legislative provisions for herbal medicines are to be found in the Medicines Act 1968, Section 12, paragraphs 1 & 2, and Section 56, paragraphs 1 & 2. Traditional medicines containing non-herbal ingredients are not yet included in these provisions.
26. Section 12(1) specifies exemption for herbal medicines from licensing provided that they are supplied subsequent to private personal consultation. Section 12(2) exempts herbal medicines provided that they are produced according to standard traditional, non-industrial methods. It also specifies that no written claims may be made for the use of the remedy.
27. Section 56 reiterates and expands upon the provisions of 12(1). In addition, Statutory Instrument 2130 1977 lists several herbs "in respect of which the exemptions conferred by section 56(2) do not have effect". This removed the herbs so identified from general sale and specified that they may only be prescribed on consultation, or supplied under the supervision of a pharmacist. This list also specifies maximum permitted doses and daily doses for those herbs.
28. The obvious shortcomings of these provisions are the current exclusion of non-herbal ingredients and that there is no definition of who or what a practitioner is. The imminent revision of Section 12(1), alongside the statutory regulation of the CAM professions, is expected
26
to redress these shortcomings. 29. For more information regarding UK legislative provisions, EU directives and the status of traditional herbal medicines (TMH) and
