Health Guides That Help You Make Smarter Medicine Choices
Want clear, no-nonsense info about drugs, supplements, or buying medicine online? This tag collects practical guides from GoGoMeds so you can find facts fast—without medical jargon. You'll see real-world tips on popular meds, safer alternatives, and how to avoid scams when shopping for prescriptions.
Wondering which article to read first? If you're checking common prescriptions, we've got pieces on Metformin alternatives, Lexapro (escitalopram) basics, and Tamoxifen facts. If you're shopping online, read our reviews on buying Synthroid or using UK and Australian online pharmacies safely.
Quick, useful tips you'll find here
How to spot a legit online pharmacy: look for registration with national regulators (MHRA in the UK, TGA in Australia), secure checkout, clear contact details, and a pharmacist you can speak to. If a site offers prescription meds without asking for a prescription, walk away.
Checking drug safety: read the patient leaflet, check common side effects, and watch for serious warning signs like allergic reactions or sudden breathing problems. Our articles on drugs like Moxifloxacin, Pramipexole, and Sotalol explain what to watch for and when to call a doctor.
Guides, comparisons, and safe alternatives
We break down alternatives when a drug isn't working or causes side effects. Expect clear comparisons—like 9 alternatives to hydrochlorothiazide or options instead of Vibramycin—so you and your clinician can discuss better fits. We also cover natural options where evidence supports them, like curcumin or omega-3s for inflammation, and explain the limits of supplements.
Parents get practical help too. Our clotrimazole cream guide shows step-by-step use for baby yeast infections and safety tips to avoid irritation. Women will find focused pieces on hyperthyroidism during menopause and new approaches for female UTI relief.
Want to understand how a drug works? Articles such as the Mefloquine piece and the modafinil (Provigil) explainer focus on mechanism, real research findings, and everyday implications—so you know what to expect and how treatments compare.
Short on time? Use our quick checklists: what questions to bring to your appointment, what to ask your pharmacist, and red flags for online sellers. If you need a deeper read, each post links to studies, regulatory guidance, and trusted resources.
