This policy governs how every page on GLP Notes is researched, written, reviewed, and maintained. It applies to all content, and especially to the health and safety pages that carry real consequences.
How a page is written
Every page starts from primary sources, not from other blogs. We open each symptom or safety page with a short, self-contained answer — mechanism, how common, how long, what helps, and when to seek care — so the most important information is readable in the first screen. We lead with class and generic drug names and reserve brand names for the places searchers expect them. We do not pad to a word count, and we do not use scare-headline or miracle-cure language.
How a page is reviewed
Health content is reviewed by a credentialed clinician (MD, DO, PharmD, or a registered dietitian for nutrition pages) before it carries a "medically reviewed by" line. The reviewer's name, credential, and review date appear on the page once that review is complete. We keep last-reviewed dates current because this field moves quickly — for example, the Wegovy 7.2 mg dose was approved in March 2026.
Lived experience, kept separate
Where we reflect patient-reported experience — for example, common themes from moderated patient communities — we label it clearly as individual experience and keep it visibly separate from the clinically reviewed evidence. We never present an anecdote as a clinical finding.
Corrections
If a page is wrong or out of date, we fix it and note what changed. Send a correction request and we will check it against the primary source. Accuracy is not negotiable on a health site, and a documented correction is a feature, not an embarrassment.
The commercial firewall
GLP Notes sells nothing and recommends no vendor. No commercial relationship influences what we write, because there are none — see Our Independence.
