Core Tip Complementary medicine use is widespread in inflammatory bowel disease, and potentially deleterious to treatment outcomes. Whilst demographic and clinical predictors of complementary and alternative therapy (CAM) are well established, attitudinal influences are under explored. This study demonstrates that the specific aspect of patient doctor relationship most influencing CAM use is quality of doctor communication. The other newly identified predictor of CAM use is its use by family and friends. This finding enables valuable insight suggesting that in the absence of good doctor communication, inflammatory bowel disease patients seek advice from unqualified sources such as family and friends.
