Health information sites: how to find trustworthy medicine and supplement content

Not every health site gives clear, useful information. Some pages sell products. Others summarize real studies and list drug risks. This tag page helps you find practical, trustworthy articles about medicines, online pharmacies, and supplements on MarleyDrug.

How to spot reliable health sites

Start with the basics: who wrote the article and when. Look for named authors or medical reviewers, and a recent date. Reliable pages cite sources — links to studies, drug labels, or official guidance (FDA, EMA, NHS) show care. If a site hides authorship, pushes specific products without balance, or promises miracle cures, treat it with caution.

Check for clear safety details. Good pages list common side effects, major interactions, and typical dosages. For example, our Depakote and Crestor guides explain side effects and practical precautions. When an article covers online pharmacies, it should explain how to verify licensure and avoid scams — like our Canadian online pharmacy safety piece and the RxConnected alternatives guide do.

Finally, a trustworthy site gives contact info and privacy details. MarleyDrug includes contact, privacy, and data protection pages so you can ask questions or report issues.
