About DrugsGeek
DrugsGeek publishes plain-language guides, product reviews and health-news explainers about supplements, over-the-counter health products and devices. Each article checks what a product or a headline claims against what the published evidence shows, and points out safety issues worth knowing before you buy anything.
What we cover
- Product reviews: one product at a time, ingredient by ingredient, including regulatory actions and safety signals.
- Buying guides: how to choose a type of product, what to look for on the label and what to avoid.
- Health news: what a new study or outbreak report measured, how large the effect was, and what it means for you.
- Explainers: plain-language background on symptoms, screening and everyday care.
DrugsGeek does not publish prescription-drug dosing guidance, and nothing here replaces advice from a clinician who knows your history.
How articles are made
Articles are researched from published studies, government and regulatory sources such as the FDA, NIH and CDC, and product labels, and each article lists the sources it relies on. We do not test products ourselves. Our articles are not reviewed by a licensed medical professional unless an article says so and names the reviewer. Our editorial standards and methodology explain the details.
How the site is funded
DrugsGeek participates in the Amazon Associates Program. As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. Some articles link to products on Amazon, and we may earn a commission if you buy after clicking, at no extra cost to you. See our affiliate disclosure.
