Not a speedy delete as non-notable, as the company seem famous enough. Nor as spam as I understand the author of this is Bulgarian, and thus unlikely to be directly associated with this French company. But "accepted as best homeopathic", and so on, are clearly POV. I don't know enough about this company to write a NPOV article myself. -- BillC 16:46, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

Boiron is a multinational France-based homeopathic manufacturing company, having an operating presence in 59 countries worldwide. It is the largest manufacturer of homeopathic products in the world, and in 2005, were the second largest manufacturer in over the counter medicine in France. In 2004, it employed a workforce of 2,779 and had a turnover of €313 million.
In June 2005, the firm acquired Dolisos Laboratories, then the world's second largest homeopathic remedy manufacturer.
One of its key products is Oscillococcinum, claimed to relieve flu symptoms, and one of the biggest-selling homeopathic flu medicines in the United States.
All verifiable and neutral point of view. It is, of course, short. You may want to expand it. -- BillC 01:49, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

While the homeopathic overdose is a marvelous demonstration that homeopathy nothing but sugar pills, vlogs and forums are not reliable sources. If high quality publishers (those presumed to do fact checking) have picked up the story, use those for the content basis rather than primary sources. Novangelis ( talk) 13:00, 11 April 2012 (UTC)
Feel free to correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems that while all the facts are true, this article still provides only a one sided view. I realize Homeopathic medicine is a sensitive topic, but Boiron is certainly not receiving universal criticism, as this article makes it seem. Also, seems a bit short for such a large company.

Yes. So much can be said that is good about homeopathy. I studied it part time for three years. I have used it many times and has done me good. recently I had heart burn and Boiron has a product readymade called acidil. I used it and such a relief...no more stomach bloating. Also I was taking a well reputated medication for sleeping as prescribed by my regular doctor. I felt it was good bu 3 times already I feel that I overdosed and the day after taking it to sleep I was tired the whole next day. A tiredness that made me fear for my health. I witched to a sleep remedy of anther homeopathic company have slept so much better. So why Boiron...because one of the drawbacks of Homeopathy medicine is finding the right remedy. It takes time and experience. The fact that these remedies are pre-prepared is so good and convenient. That's why Boiron has become the largest manufacturer in the world (313 Euros). When yu are doing that kind of business people should take note especially those who would criticize the science behind it. 65.34.239.20 ( talk) 15:02, 27 January 2014 (UTC)howard@efficiencyanalysts.com

We've entered an edit war concerning the addition of a section explaining, in considerable detail, a controversial urbanisation project Boiron is embroiled in Belgium. A similar edit war is playing out on the French language article. I really can't see the need for this section. Companies get involved in land usage disputes of this nature all the time, and the detail is unwarranted here. — BillC talk 09:27, 10 September 2021 (UTC)
