Editorial Policy & Medical Review Standards

Effective Date: [01-Jan-2021]
Last Updated: [19-Aug-2026]

Ziva Pharma aims to provide clear, responsible and evidence-based pharmaceutical information. Our editorial content is educational and does not replace a physician, pharmacist or other qualified healthcare professional.

1. Editorial Principles

Content should be accurate, understandable, current, balanced and transparent about uncertainty. Commercial objectives must not be used as a reason to distort medical information.

2. Sources

Where appropriate, writers should rely on primary or authoritative sources such as regulatory agencies, approved prescribing information, clinical guidelines, peer-reviewed literature, recognized medical databases and manufacturer documentation. Sources should be recorded and cited where practical.

3. Medical Review

Clinical claims, dosing information, safety information and other material medical statements should be reviewed by an appropriately qualified healthcare professional before publication when the content is intended to provide clinical information. Ziva Pharma will identify the reviewer and credentials where appropriate and where consent has been obtained.

4. Generic Medicines

We may discuss generic medicines using active/generic names. We will not state or imply that every generic product is interchangeable, bioequivalent or approved in every country unless supported by the applicable regulatory evidence.

5. Independence

Sponsored or commercial content must be clearly identified. We will not present promotional claims as independent medical conclusions.

6. Corrections and Updates

We will correct material errors when identified and may display a “Last Updated” date. Readers can report factual or safety concerns to [email protected].

7. AI and Technology

Technology, including AI-assisted tools, may be used for drafting or formatting, but medical claims must undergo appropriate human verification before publication. Automated output is not treated as a substitute for expert review.
