Source Standards

The source hierarchy Revive uses for cardiovascular medication, circulation and male-vitality content.

Clinical claims should be anchored in the strongest available evidence for the specific question. A retailer is a reasonable source for a listed price. It is not a reasonable sole source for whether a medicine reduces cardiovascular mortality.

Preferred primary sources

Depending on jurisdiction and topic, preferred sources include medicine regulators such as the U.S. FDA, European Medicines Agency, UK MHRA and equivalent national regulators; official prescribing information; recognized clinical guidelines; trial registries; and peer-reviewed medical literature.

Secondary sources

High-quality national health services, academic medical centers and professional societies may be used for patient-facing explanation. Commercial telehealth, pharmacy and manufacturer pages can supplement price, pack size or availability data when clearly labeled.

AI-generated claims

An AI-generated statement is not treated as a source. Clinical facts must be traceable to external evidence.
