TheLiverDoc criticized Samantha’s suggestion, calling it dangerous and unapproved by health authorities. In response, Samantha posted on Instagram, acknowledging the concerns but defending her intention to help others.
In a follow-up post on Saturday, TheLiverDoc apologized to Samantha but harshly criticized her doctors, Mitra Basu Chillar and Dr. Jockers, labeling them as “businessmen” and “frauds.” He accused them of promoting dubious treatments like ozone therapy and IV vitamin therapy, which he claims are ineffective and potentially harmful.
Philips, who had called out Samantha on Thursday and countered her post by sharing a link to the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America’s study about the dangers of hydrogen peroxide nebulisation, responded to her statement and called her a “serial offender” in the context of healthcare misinformation.
Samantha Ruth Prabhu Defends Nebulisation Post Amidst Controversy: ‘He Suggests I Should Be Thrown In Prison’
“Ms Samantha Ruth Prabhu has responded to my ‘provocative’ criticism of her endorsement of unscientific, pseudoscientific and baseless alternative medicine therapies by playing the victim card and endorsing more alternative practices.
“I expected better from someone who claims that she wants to improve. This is far from improvement. A rational and logical response would be to delete the public health endangering post and apologise to her millions of followers and vouch to never quote or cite fraudulent practices and practitioners,” he wrote on Twitter.
He said he won’t comment or debunk any of the actor’s “future endorsements” of such alternative healthcare advice.
