How pharmaranks works
- What is pharmaranks?
- pharmaranks is an independent ratings and directory service for pharmaceutical and wellness companies and their products. We rate; we don't sell. Profiles are built on FDA regulatory (recall-safety) data and drug labels via openFDA/DailyMed, alongside source-cited drug guides, a drug-interaction checker, and a pill identifier.
- How are pharmaranks ratings calculated?
- Each product and company gets a composite score, currently weighted most heavily on FDA regulatory recall-safety data (recall history and severity), with additional authoritative sources blended in as they come online. Sponsorship and affiliate links never affect the score. See the full methodology at /how-we-rate.
- Does pharmaranks sell medications?
- No. pharmaranks is an independent rater and directory — we don't sell drugs or supplements. Some outbound links are affiliate links, which are clearly disclosed and never affect our ratings.
- Is pharmaranks medical advice?
- No. pharmaranks is an information and ratings service, not a healthcare provider. Everything here is general reference — always consult a licensed professional before starting, stopping, or changing any treatment.
