Who checks what we publish, and how

A qualified doctor reviews every page on this site. We check factual claims and medical details against drug labels and published studies. Commercial interests never shape what we write.

How a page is written and checked

Every article and drug comparison follows a clear five-step review process before we publish it.

  1. Primary Source Compilation. Written from primary sources: prescribing information, regulator documents, peer-reviewed clinical studies.
  2. Data Provenance & Verification. Every number is linked to its source; anything we cannot independently verify is marked as not available.
  3. Dermatologist Sign-off. A dermatologist reviews every draft before publication to confirm medical details and safety warnings.
  4. Routine Recertification Cycle. Re-checked at least every [PLACEHOLDER] months, or sooner when the official label or statutory rules change.
  5. Public Attribution & Audit Trail. Each page explicitly shows its reviewing clinician and last review date.

What we will not do

What we will not do

To preserve absolute clinical utility and resist commercial influence, we enforce the following restrictions across our medical writing without exception:

  • ✕ Claim a cure — Chronic vitiligo & eczema management is symptomatic
  • ✕ Publish testimonials, ratings or before-and-after photos — Anecdotes mislead clinical expectations
  • ✕ Call the generic FDA-approved — Precise legal registration must be maintained
  • ✕ Use the original product’s results as if they were the generic’s — Bioequivalence and trial boundaries are kept explicit

Corrections
