Objective: The aim of the present report is to provide an overview of the first database on clinical research in veterinary homeopathy.

Procedures: Detailed searches in the database ‘Veterinary Clinical Research-Database in Homeopathy’ (http://www.carstens-stiftung.de/clinresvet/index.php).

Results: The database contains about 200 entries of randomised clinical trials, non-randomised clinical trials, observational studies, drug provings, case reports and case series. Twenty-two clinical fields are covered and eight different groups of species are included. The database is free of charge and open to all interested veterinarians and researchers.

Conclusion: The database enables researchers and veterinarians, sceptics and supporters to get a quick overview of the status of veterinary clinical research in homeopathy and alleviates the preparation of systematical reviews or may stimulate reproductions or even new studies.
