Facts only. This site lists what the FDA has approved and what the FDA says each drug is approved for, quoted or closely paraphrased from FDA and openFDA records. It gives no medical advice, no dosing, and no comparisons, and it says nothing about whether a drug is right for anyone. Talk to a licensed clinician about any medication. Records can lag or contain errors; the FDA's own pages are authoritative.
