Medical Review Policy
This policy defines when MedGuideGlobal may describe a clinical page as medically reviewed and when that page may be eligible for search indexing. A site-wide claim is not enough: the evidence must exist for the individual page.
Pages covered by the policy
The policy applies to medicine guides, condition guides, clinical articles, and country-specific medicine information. Calculators and experimental safety tools follow separate limitation notices and must not present their output as medical review or a safe treatment decision.
What “Reviewed” means
A page labelled Reviewed has passed this site’s full quality pipeline: medicine identity, evidence sufficiency, indications, dosing, safety, interactions, special populations, citation verification, cross-section contradiction checks, country and brand verification, accessibility, and static/rendered output parity. The label records that those checks passed. It does not by itself assert that a named clinician signed off on that individual page, and no reviewer name or credentials are shown unless a specific person actually reviewed that page.
Pages released this way are inspected afterwards by the site owner, a doctor, through an internal review queue. A correction request or rejection removes the affected version from publication and from the sitemap until a corrected version passes the complete pipeline again.
Mandatory page-level evidence
Every indexable clinical page must link to specific authoritative references that support it — regulator product information, government medicine databases, national formularies, or recognised clinical guidance. A regulator home page or a database search page does not satisfy the requirement. Where a page additionally carries a named medical reviewer, that person must be real, their credentials or professional role stated, and the review date genuine; a generic team label or a publication date copied into a review field does not satisfy it.
Clinical review scope
Review covers the medicine or condition identity, intended uses, dosage or administration context, contraindications, interactions, adverse effects, pregnancy or population considerations, warnings, urgent-care guidance, uncertainty, and consistency with cited sources. The reviewer must be able to request revision, consolidation, noindex treatment, or withdrawal.
Release and re-review
Editorial approval and medical-review approval are separate controls. A page remains out of the sitemap until all mandatory checks pass. Material safety changes, corrections, conflicting evidence, or a change in local regulatory status can trigger re-review. An update timestamp is not automatically a medical review date.
Transparency and independence
Reviewer and reference details are displayed only when recorded for that page. Commercial relationships must not determine a clinical conclusion, redirect, comparison, or medicine recommendation. Readers can report a possible error through the contact page and review the corrections policy.
