Evidence and regulatory context

Medical use or authorisation exists historically or in limited jurisdictions. Current availability, indications and legal classification must be checked against the regulator for the reader’s location.

03

Reading product records

Route, vehicle and concentration can materially change a topical product. A page about an approved oral or ophthalmic medicine does not automatically validate a compounded hair formulation or an unapproved research product using the same active ingredient.

Use current regulator and study records rather than treating a catalogue description as medical evidence.
