American Association of Homeopathic Pharmacists

The A.A.H.P., founded in 1923,  is the largest trade organization of the American homeopathic industry, representing over 70% of the manufacturing and distributing companies in the U.S., with connections to other manufacturers overseas.

The A.A.H.P. routinely meets with the FDA, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (BATF).  The association sponsors pharmaceutical industry seminars as part of their Compliance Through Education  program.  Our on-going public relations campaign is intended to heighten public and professional awareness of homeopathy in general, and the A.A.H.P. in particular. We are also distributing a booklet on Homeotherapy: Definitions and Therapeutic Schools.

The A.A.H.P. is primarily a trade association of homeopathic manufacturers and distributors.  The association holds two membership meetings a year in conjunction with major health food trade shows.  Members receive a monthly newsletter, Network News, keeping them aware of issues affecting the homeopathic industry.
