FAQs
most common questions... and their answers!
How do you get your information?
ChironsList gets and aggregates its information from various reputable medical sources. The information we display is that which is listed by these medical sources.
Do you have medical doctors on staff, reviewing the information?
While ChironsList does not have medical doctors on staff, we do consult with medical doctors and healthcare professional to review information and update as needed.
How do you determine the “best suited” medication in your results list?
ChironsList will first display medications with no known interactions, allergies or contraindications with any parameter entered in the search criteria. If any allergy, contraindication or interaction is found for a medication given the search parameters, this medication will be listed in the “other options with potential interactions or contraindications” list. Note that some medications do not have a readily available list of contraindications or interactions. If none are listed, it should not be assumed that none exist. Likewise, it should not be assumed that the only ones listed are the only possible ones.
You should always consult a medical professional prior to taking ANY medication.
Do you list all available information for a medication?
No, ChironsList does not. ChironsList is only intended as a quick reference guide to help quickly guide the decision for which medication to use. ChironsList only lists active ingredients, basic description, indications, known interactions, contraindications, dosage, pediatric safety and Major side effects. For full details on any medication, always consult the manufacturer or medical sites dedicated to that mission.
Do you list all the potential uses for a medication?
No, ChironsList does not. There are often other conditions for which a given medication can be used. We only list those condition that are corroborated by the medical sources that we use. ChironsList will occasionally add conditions a given medication can treat when several medical doctors will confirm the use of a medication to treat a condition not listed its page.
Do all the medications you list treat and cure the conditions listed under them?
Not necessarily. There are some conditions which unfortunately do not have a cure. In some cases, the medication listed only alleviates the symptoms. There are also several Over the Counter (OTC) medications that only alleviate symptoms. This is why you should always consult with a medical professional before taking any medication.
How do you determine the price of a given medication? Is it the price I can expect to pay?
ChironsList aggregates information from various medical sources. As such the price listed for any given medication is only really an order of magnitude. The actual price that one can expect to pay depends on numerous factors such as out of pocket, insurance plan, Medicare, Medicaid, amongst others.
