“…The prominence of social networks as the main CAM information source is noted particularly, but not exclusively, in the UK [5,7,29,35,36,[54][55][56][57][58][59], Turkey [38,39,41,42,[60][61][62][63][64][65], Israel [66][67][68], Norway [11] and Ireland [69], and is confirmed by studies examining CAM across a range of countries [33,[70][71][72][73]. Citizens in these countries appear to draw considerably less frequently on biomedical professionals for information about CAM.…”

“…Studies included in this review point to a spectrum of disclosure rates of CAM use in different EU countries that ranges from low disclosure, where the majority of CAM users do not discuss CAM with biomedical professionals (e.g. in Turkey [38][39][40][41][42]), to high disclosure, where the majority disclose their use of CAM (e.g. in Switzerland [43][44][45].…”

Background: Surveys from several European countries suggest a European-wide increase in the use of Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM). To safeguard citizens’ rights concerning their healthcare, it is critical to gain an overview of citizens’ attitudes and to understand their expectations and needs regarding CAM. Methods: A review of literature was undertaken, based on systematic searches of the following electronic databases: PubMed, Web of Science, CINHAL, AMED, PsycINFO and PsycArticles; 189 articles met inclusion criteria. Articles were analysed thematically and their reporting quality assessed. Results: Despite the limited availability of research-based knowledge about citizens’ attitudes and needs concerning CAM in many European countries, some trends can be noted. Many citizens hold positive attitudes to CAM and wish for increasing access to CAM provision. Citizens call for impartial, reliable and trustworthy information to support informed decision-making, and some citizens wish for greater support and involvement of biomedical healthcare professionals in facilitating their healthcare choices. While citizens value distinct aspects of CAM practice, they are also critical consumers and support clear regulatory and educational frameworks to ensure the quality and safety of CAM provision and medicinal products. Conclusion: To gain knowledge on citizens’ needs and attitudes to CAM across Europe further research is required on 3 main issues: i) how citizens across Europe obtain information about CAM and the needs they may have for trustworthy information sources, ii) the local situations for accessing CAM and iii) citizens’ perspectives on the quality of care and safety of CAM provision and products.
