Editorial Standards at Indogenmed

Indogenmed is committed to providing accurate, reliable, and up-to-date information on health, medicines, and related topics. This Editorial Policy explains how we create, review, publish, and update content to maintain quality, integrity, and transparency. All content on our website is for informational purposes only and is not a substitute for professional medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment.

Our Authors

Purpose

The purpose of this Editorial Policy is to:

  • Maintain user trust by ensuring the credibility and accuracy of our content

  • Define clear processes for content creation, medical review, publishing, and updates

  • Promote ethical, unbiased, and responsible communication about health and medicines

Content Standards

All content published on Indogenmed follows these standards:

  • Evidence-Based: Information is derived from trusted sources, including clinical guidelines, peer-reviewed studies, standard medical references, and recognized health authorities.

  • Accurate and Responsible: We aim for factual accuracy, balanced benefit-risk communication, and avoidance of misleading or exaggerated claims.

  • User-Focused: Content is written in clear, simple language to help readers understand complex topics.

  • Safety-First: We include appropriate precautions, warnings, and guidance on when to seek professional help, where relevant.

Content Creation Process

Our editorial workflow generally includes:

  • Topic Selection: Topics are chosen based on user needs, customer inquiries, public health relevance, and content gaps.
  • Research: Writers use reputable references such as medical journals, government/health authority resources, and standard clinical references.
  • Drafting: Content is structured for readability (headings, key takeaways, FAQs) while maintaining accuracy.
  • Review: Where appropriate, content is reviewed by a qualified pharmacist, medical professional, or subject-matter expert to confirm accuracy and clarity.
  • Publishing: Content is published after editorial checks for quality, consistency, and compliance with our standards.

Sources and Referencing

Where appropriate, we cite or reference reliable sources to support medical statements. We prioritize:

  • Health authority guidance and clinical guidelines
  • Peer-reviewed research and systematic reviews
  • Standard medical references
  • We avoid using low-quality sources and do not publish unverified medical claims.

Content Updates

Medical information can change over time. To keep content current:

  • We periodically review and update articles when new research, guidance, or safety information becomes available.

  • Significant updates are reflected by a Last Reviewed or Last Updated date on the page.

  • If an article becomes outdated, we may revise, archive, or remove it.

Transparency and Disclosure

  • Author Credentials: Articles may include author names and qualifications, where applicable.

  • Medical Review: Where a medical reviewer is involved, the reviewer's name and role may be displayed (for example, Reviewed by Pharmacist).

  • Sponsorship and Advertising: Sponsored content and advertisements are clearly labelled and visually separated from editorial content.

  • Conflicts of Interest: Any potential conflicts that could influence content are disclosed when relevant.

User Contributions

Users may submit questions, feedback, or topic suggestions. All submissions are reviewed and may be edited for clarity, safety, and accuracy. User submissions do not replace professional medical advice and are not published as medical guidance without appropriate editorial review.

Editorial Independence

Our editorial decisions are independent of advertisers, sponsors, and commercial partnerships. Content topics, conclusions, and recommendations are driven by user benefit, evidence quality, and responsible health communication standards.
