Reliable Health Information
Although Wikipedia or WebMD are good websites to start with to understand an area and possibly get some search terms or references, do not use them in your citations or references. The following databases are much more reliable. You'll find information about symptoms, causes, and treatments for most health problems. Use these when you are looking for clinical information about diseases and disorders. MedlinePlus is a government website and is available to you after you leave DU and begin your career.

- Gale Health And WellnessProvides articles and background resources for drug and health-related topics, and contains a medical encyclopedia and dictionary.
