Corrections: help us get it right
Thank you for caring about accuracy. This site is run by people, and its pages are built and checked by the method on our How We Research page. Even so, a detail can be wrong or go out of date. If that has happened, we are sorry, and we want to put it right.
What you can report
You can tell us about any of these:
- A fact that is wrong, such as an ingredient, an amount, a price, a guarantee or refund term, or what a study found.
- A cited source that does not say what the page says, or a link that no longer works.
- The wrong product or maker, or details that have changed, including a recall or safety warning.
- A product described in a way that breaks advertising or health-claim rules.
- An ad or banner that is not labelled as one, or that makes a claim of its own.
A fact worth reporting
Say a page lists a dose from a product label, but the label in your hand shows a different amount. That is worth telling us about. Share the page address, the sentence that looks off, and a copy of the label or another source for the correct information.
How to send a report
Use our contact page. Include the page address, the sentence, and a source if you have one. You might write: ‘On this page, the sentence about the refund term does not match the maker’s current policy. Here is the policy link.’
What happens next
Each report is checked against the source. If the page is wrong, we fix it. The date line then shows ‘Updated’ with the date of the change.
What a correction covers
Corrections cover facts and compliance. Which products a page covers and how it compares them are editorial decisions made by the publisher named on our About page, which also discloses commissions and any connection to products shown. Requests to remove a comparison, a competing product, or an ad are not corrections, but we read them. A wrong fact inside a comparison is a correction. If a maker finds something wrong about its product, you are welcome to send the source so we can update the page.
Legal notices and safety concerns
Send legal notices and concerns about a product’s safety through our contact page. If you or someone you know has been harmed by a product, speak to a clinician and report it to the FDA through MedWatch.
