The Negligence of Healthcare Workers in the Use of Herbal Medicines: Legal Implications and Impacts on Patients
Keywords:
herbal medicines, legal protection, health regulations, healthcare workers' responsibilities, pharmacovigilance, community education, herbal medicine supervisionAbstract
The use of herbal medicines in Indonesia is an integral part of traditional health practices that are rich in cultural and historical value. The growing community interest in herbal medicines, however, poses various challenges in terms of legal aspects, supervision, and the responsibility of health workers. Law No. 17 of 2023 on Health provides a clear legal framework, but its implementation is often hampered. This research explores legal protection for patients in the use of herbal remedies and the legal responsibilities of health workers, including regulatory challenges, pharmacovigilance, and public education. The results of the research show that there are still gaps in the supervision of herbal medicines and legal protection for patients. To overcome these challenges, it is necessary to strengthen regulations, increase the supervisory capacity of the Indonesian Food and Drug Administration (BPOM), and provide better education to the public and health workers.
