MedShadow Foundation Blog

The MedShadow Foundation utilizes its website and multiple social media channels to share up-to-date articles and news regarding medical conditions, potential side effects, and alternative treatment options. We understand that medications are crucial for saving lives, especially for those with chronic illnesses and critical health situations. However, we are also aware that some medications may be overprescribed and that comprehensive information about side effects is often insufficient. Additionally, long-term effects typically aren’t examined before FDA approval. Our goal is to help bridge this information gap and motivate patients to evaluate the risks and benefits of the medications they are given.
