1. Not a substitute for professional care
Nothing on this platform creates a doctor–patient or pharmacist–patient relationship. Always seek the advice of your physician, pharmacist, or other qualified provider with any questions about a medical condition, a medication, or a dietary supplement. Never disregard professional medical advice, or delay seeking it, because of something you have read here.
2. Individual circumstances vary
Safety, dosing, and interaction information is presented for the general adult population unless stated otherwise. It may not apply to you. Pregnancy, breastfeeding, childhood, older age, kidney or liver disease, and concurrent medications can all change what is safe. Decisions about your own use should be made with a professional who knows your history.
3. Emergencies
If you think you may have a medical emergency, or have taken a harmful dose of any substance, contact your local emergency number or poison control centre immediately. Do not rely on this website in an emergency.
4. Supplements are not medicines
Dietary supplements are generally not evaluated or approved by medicines regulators for the prevention, treatment, or cure of any disease. Product quality, labelling accuracy, and contamination risk vary between manufacturers. Certification status shown here reflects third-party programmes and does not guarantee any individual product is safe or effective for you.
5. No guarantee of completeness
We work to keep information accurate and current, but science evolves and errors occur. Content may be incomplete, out of date, or superseded. Many entries are clearly marked as under editorial review. We make no warranty that the information is complete, accurate, or suitable for any particular purpose.
6. Your responsibility
You use this information at your own risk. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Public Health Institute of Georgia (PHIG) and the authors accept no liability for any loss or harm arising from reliance on the content of this platform.
