External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Drugs.com. Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

  • Attempted to fix sourcing for //drugs.com/page.cfm?s=430,444,100000350

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{Sourcecheck}}).

Reliability of drugs.com? Is the website for profit?

Personally I find the information useful and reliable.

But in some Wikipedia talk pages, for example https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Donepezil people claim the website is not reliable.

Can you give examples of wrong or unreliable information at drugs.com? And do they correct if one sends corrections?

Do drug companies advertise at drugs.com? Which drugs and which companies recently? If yes, that might lower reliability.

The place to discuss reliability of sources about medicine is at WT:MED. This Talk page is for discussing this Wikipedia article. Not whether the subject of this article is useful as a reference elsewhere in WP. Jytdog (talk) 22:26, 6 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Those host stuff from a bunch of groups, some better than others. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 00:29, 7 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]


What a horrible website

Basically it seems involved in click bait garbage using Google. They'll list a high interaction for drugs combinations, for instance, in a Google search at the top as, I presume, a sponsored search result, then you click on it and further down will say No Interactions Found followed by a long list of Other Interactions with this Medication Searched or other such garbage. -Reticuli 2600:2B00:7628:D700:4132:F954:E301:8559 (talk) 12:31, 3 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
